Description | "The House may vote on Thursday to cite Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt of Congress in connection to the Fast and Furious investigation. And although the vote will likely be largely split along party lines, some Democrats have said they're breaking ranks. Here's a list of such members, which we're updating:
Rep. Collin Peterson, D-Minn., plans to vote yes, his press secretary confirmed to the Alley.
Rep. Jim Matheson, D-Utah, was the first to announce he's going with the Republicans on this one.
Rep. John Barrow, D-Ga., issued a statement announcing his "yes" vote on contempt. "While Republicans and Democrats argue over the scope of the people's right to know what happened, the Attorney General has decided to withhold relevant documents," he wrote.
Rep. Nick Rahall, D-W.V., is voting yes, reports Fox News." |
