Where was his 'concern' while the rest of us were the subjects of the same thing? I suppose the privacy of some is more important than others. Steny is a DINO (Democrat In Name Only) and shouldn't be leader of the house. A clue to why he is may be found in this story. Coincidence?
House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) said Tuesday he had “great concern” over news reports that Rep. Jane Harman (D-Calif.) was wiretapped during a federal probe into Israeli agents, and he vowed to personally look into whether there should be an investigation into wiretapping of Members of Congress.
“The stories that I’ve read give me great concern. I’m going to be in the process personally of finding out more about it and then, with the Speaker, determining what action, if any, needs to be taken,” Hoyer said Wednesday during a meeting with reporters.
Hoyer’s remarks come as Harman continues to fight allegations — which first appeared in Congressional Quarterly on Sunday — that she was wiretapped in 2005 during conversations with a suspected Israeli agent. The report alleged that the veteran California lawmaker agreed to seek leniency for two accused spies in return for help in lobbying Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) for the Intelligence Committee chairmanship.
Harman, who was passed over by Pelosi for the gavel in 2006, was the ranking member on Intelligence at the time of the alleged wiretapped conversations.More HERE.
