Attorney General to Testify on Domestic Spying


U.S. Attorney General Alberto Gonzales


An AP newswire article, via MSNBC, reports that:

Attorney General Alberto Gonzales has agreed to testify at a Senate hearing on the Bush administration’s domestic spying program, a Justice Department official said Friday.

Gonzales will discuss the legal authority for the National Security Agency’s warrantless eavesdropping on telephone conversations between suspected terrorists and people in the United States, the official said.

The attorney general will not talk about operational aspects of the program at the hearing, which is expected to take place early next month, the official said.
