During the hearing, lsaa, Cumming, and Mica all agreed and then proceeded to pressure 1he Department to answer the 5 questions about the document process in writing. As you know, I answered 4 of the questions orally at the briefing l ast week I but the staff and now the members wan1 the answers in writing. Additionally I Mica asked the Chairman to inform him of the appropriate time for a motion to subpoena the documents in the March 27th request. lssa said that the motion would likely not be in order at today's hearing, but that he would let Mica know when he could make the motion.
