Democrats to hold own hearings on warrantless wiretaps
John Byrne
Published: January 10, 2006

Reps. John Conyers, Jr. (D-MI), Bobby Scott (D-VA) and Chris Van Hollen
(D-MD) will hold a Democratic hearing next Friday to consider the legal
ramifications of President Bush's warrantless surveillance on
international calls, RAW STORY has learned.

The Jan. 20 Democratic hearings come in the wake of a request from
House Judiciary Committee Democrats to hold official Congressional
hearings on the matter. The Republican chairman, Rep. F. James
Sensenbrenner (R-WI), has not responded to Democrats' requests.

In the Senate, Judiciary Committee Chairman Arlen Specter (R-PA) said
he would hold hearings on the taps, but has not officially scheduled a
session.
