For the eighth time since he became attorney general, Eric Holder Jr. will take center stage at the Senate Judiciary Committee. Holder is scheduled to testify during a March 6 oversight hearing, Senator Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.), the committee chairman, announced last week.
Holder’s appearance will mark his first in the new Congress, giving new members of the committee like Senator Ted Cruz (R-Texas) the chance to press the attorney general on hot issues. Topics likely to come up include the administration’s gun control effort and the secrecy over the Justice Department memos addressing the lawfulness of the government’s targeted killing program.
