Issa Sues Holder Over Fast And Furious Documents
The House Oversight Committee, led by Chairman Darrell Issa (R-CA), filed a civil lawsuit against Attorney General Eric Holder Monday for what Issa alleges was Holder’s failure to cooperate with a congressional subpoena.
Issa promised to sue after the House of Representatives found Holder in contempt of Congress for allegedly failing to provide documents related to committee’s investigation into the botched ATF operation known as Fast and Furious.
Issa tweeted the news on Sunday night, referring to the civil lawsuit as “charges” against Holder. The lawsuit, filed in D.C. federal court midday Monday, contends that the Justice Department’s view of executive privilege goes too far.
