We have learned that most of the U.S. attorneys that were asked to resign were doing their jobs well and were fired for not bending to the political will of some in Washington. Apparently. their reward for their efforts at rooting out serious public corruption is a kick out the door. Along with these oversight matters. the Judiciary Committee has taken up questions relating to the war in Iraq and congressional authority to condition funding. the plight of Iraqi refugees. the recommendation of the Iraq Study Group on policing and the administration of justice in Iraq. and contracting fraud and abuse in Iraq. We have examined enforcing our antitrust laws. restoring open government by reinvigorating the Freedom of Information Act. ending antitrust immunity for insurers. increasing drug competition. strengthening protections against identity theft. and providing for fair and comprehensive immigration reform. We have also moved legislative initiatives. Indeed.
