Gonzales Refuses to Step Down over Attorneys Scandal

HeadlineJul 24, 2007

Attorney General Alberto Gonzales is returning to Capitol Hill today to testify about the U.S. attorneys scandal and the politicization of the Justice Department. In a statement released on Monday, Gonzales said he does not intend to step down. Meanwhile, Congressman John Conyers has announced the House Judiciary Committee plans to vote Wednesday on whether to issue contempt citations to White House Chief of Staff Joshua Bolten and former White House Counsel Harriet Miers. Both Bolten and Miers have refused congressional demands for information on their roles in the U.S. attorney dismissals.
