Martha -- Urge Congress to Find Rove in Contempt -- 09.19.08

Printer-friendly verion

In July, the House Judiciary Committee subpoenaed Karl Rove, demanding
his testimony about his own role in the politicization of the
Department of Justice and politically-motivated prosecutions of
Democratic leaders, including Gov. Don Siegelman.

Karl Rove refused to even show up for the hearing, claiming that
Congress has no power to compel senior White House officials to
testify. That's outrageous.

Now that a U.S. District Judge has ruled that White House aides like
Rove can't claim immunity in order to refuse to testify before
Congress, it's time to take the next step: Now it's time to urge the
full House to vote Karl Rove in contempt, forcing him to show up and
testify.

Please join Gov. Don Siegelman in speaking out and urging Congress to
do the right thing:

There's no room for Karl Rove to hide any longer -- but our time is
running out. If Congress adjourns at the end of September and
nothing's been done, all of our effort goes down the drain. So now we
must pull out the stops and turn up the heat.

Email your Member of Congress right now:

Thanks for your help!
