CIA Refuses to Release New 9/11 Report

HeadlineOct 20, 2004

On Capitol Hill the ranking members of the House Intelligence Committee have asked the CIA to turn over an internal report on whether agency employees should be held accountable for intelligence failures leading up to the Sept. 11 attacks. This according to a report in the Los Angeles Times. The CIA has yet to respond to the request. Some Democratic lawmakers have questioned whether the report is being withheld to avoid embarrassment for the Bush administration in the final weeks before the presidential election. So far no agency employee has been fired or faced other disciplinary measures in connection with Sept. 11. Congresswoman Jane Harman of California, the chief Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee said “We believe that the CIA has been told not to distribute the report. We are very concerned.”
