Sampson: It’s A Date!Yesterday, the Senate Judiciary Committee extended an invitation for Alberto Gonzales’ former chief of staff Kyle Sampson to testify. If he didn’t want to come voluntarily, the committee said, he’d be subpoenaed.
Today, via a letter from his lawyer to the committee, he accepted — no subpoena necessary.
“Mr. Sampson looks forward to answering the Committee’s questions,” the letter reads. “We trust that his decision to do so will satisfy the need of the Congress to obtain information from him concerning the requested resignations of the United States Attorneys.”
The hearing will take place at 10 AM next Thursday.
