"H Res 505, introduced by Rep. Dennis Kucinich to require the Bush administration to turn over all documents relating to the White House Iraq Group, failed to be reported out of the House International Relations Committee on a 23-25 vote this morning.
H Res 505, which was co-sponsored by 104 House members, picked up two Republican votes from Rep. Jim Leach and Rep. Ron Paul. Two Democratic committee members failed to appear for the vote: Rep. Eni Faleomavaega of American Samoa and Rep. Howard Berman of California's 28th district.
Please contact the following House members to thank them for their extremely hard work on this resolution:
Rep. Dennis Kucinich, (202) 225-5871
Rep. Adam Smith (WA-9th CD), (202) 225-8901
Rep. Barbara Lee, (202) 225-2661
Please ALSO contact the two Democrats on the committee who failed even to show up for the vote, and ask why this happened:
Rep. Eni Faleomavaega, (202) 225-8577
Rep. Howard Berman, (202) 225-4695
