Congress to Consider NSA Subpoenas and Assess Situations in Syria and Iran
By Andrew Cochran
The terrorism-related hearings this week in Congress include a special hearing by the Senate Judiciary Committee at 2 pm ET today to consider whether to issue subpoenas for a future hearing on the NSA surveillance program. The House International Relations Committee's Middle East subcommittee meets tomorrow to assess the results of the Syria Accountability and Lebanese Sovereignty Restoration Act, passed almost two years ago, and UN Ambassador John Bolton will testify. The House Armed Services Committee meets on Thursday to assess the geopolitical threat from Iran. You can see the full schedule and details of this week's open hearings here (Acrobat file).
