Gonzales Subpoenaed over Documents in Attorney Firings

HeadlineApr 11, 2007

On Capitol Hill, the House Judiciary Committee has delivered its first subpoena to Attorney General Alberto Gonzales as part of the probe into the dismissals of eight U.S. attorneys. Lawmakers want Gonzales to turn over the full text of documents that had been partially or fully redacted when they were released last month. House Judiciary Chair John Conyers called the subpoenas a measure of last resort following weeks of delays from the Justice Department. Gonzales is scheduled to testify before Congress next week.
