The House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform today formally requested Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice to testify before the committee on Apr. 18 regarding the Bush administration's claims that Iraq had sought uranium from Niger, White House treatment of classified information, the appointment of Ambassador Richard Jones as "special coordinator" for Iraq, and other subjects.
