Hillary Clinton has urged the State Department to release the emails she wrote from a private email account while serving as Secretary of State.
It was the first time Mrs Clinton had weighed in over a mounting controversy.
In a tweet late on Wednesday, she said: "I want the public to see my email. I asked State to release them. They said they will review them for release as soon as possible."
The stance was aimed at cooling a political firestorm over allegations that she inappropriately used her personal email for work during her stint at the State Department from 2009 to 2013.
The row has suddenly put Mrs Clinton into trouble just as she is planning to launch a bid for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2016. It has raised questions about transparency and security of her communications, and Republicans were quick to criticise her.
The State Department said it would review the emails provided by Clinton "using a normal process that guides such releases".
"We will undertake this review as quickly as possible. Given the sheer volume of the document set, this review will take some time to complete," spokeswoman Marie Harf said.
Mrs Clinton's tweeted statement came hours after a congressional committee investigating the September 2012 attack on a US diplomatic facility in Benghazi, Libya, issued subpoenas for her emails.
Mrs Clinton's team said this week she acted no differently from her predecessors at the State Department who also used private email addresses.
Last year, she provided the State Department 55,000 pages of emails after the department asked her and other former secretaries for records that should be preserved.
Yet her team alone decided what would be turned over and should not, without any outside control or clarity on how those decisions were made.
