The House International Relations Committee is scheduled to debate and vote on a Resolution of Inquiry into the White House Iraq Group Wednesday, Nov, 9 at 10:30 a.m.

This will be the first vote Congress takes on investigating the White House Iraq Group (WHIG) and the first vote related to the war since Vice Presidential Chief of Staff Lewis Libby was indicted. This vote will be a key test of whether Republicans will continue to stand behind the White House’s case for war.
 
On September 14, the International Relations Committee defeated by one vote a Resolution of Inquiry into White House and State Department communications with the United Kingdom involving Iraq war plans.
