Hillary Clinton weighed in Wednesday on the new House investigation into the terrorist attack in Benghazi, Libya that killed four Americans, telling an interviewer that questions about the episode have been answered and there is no valid reason to press the matter.

The House on Thursday is expected to formally empower a special committee to look into the 2012 attacks, a move that could give Republicans a fresh opportunity to target Mrs. Clinton in the run-up to a potential presidential campaign.

Asked if she was satisfied that previous reviews of Benghazi had adequately addressed the tragedy, Mrs. Clinton said: Absolutely. Of course there are a lot of reasons why despite all of the hearings, all of the information thats been provided some choose not to be satisfied and choose to continue to move forward.

She added: Thats their choice and I do not believe there is any reason for it to continue in this way, but they get to call the shots in the Congress.

Mrs. Clinton was speaking to ABCs Robin Roberts at an annual meeting of various New York charities.

Mrs. Clinton has called Benghazi the biggest regret of her four year tenure as President Barack Obamas secretary of state. An independent commission that she created produced a report last year concluding that senior Obama administration officials did not deserve to be disciplined over their handling of the attack.

But some Republicans believe Mrs. Clinton shouldnt be off the hook. U.S. Sen. Rand Paul (R., Ky.), himself a potential presidential candidate in 2016, said last year that Mrs. Clinton bore responsibility for failing to provide security that might have thwarted the attackers.

Earlier this week, Mr. Paul said he believed Mrs. Clinton should be subpoenaed by the new panel, which will be led by U.S. Rep. Trey Gowdy (R., S.C.).

Mr. Paul said that we need to know who was responsible, and she was in charge.
