According to TPM Muckraker, the House Judiciary Committee will consider granting immunity to Monica Goodling in exchange for her testimony. Goodling, if you recall, was present during Domenici’s call to Iglesias. It was also her written note listing reasons for firing Iglesias that said: “Domenici says he doesn’t move cases.”
Goodling, who has since resigned from her position at the Dept. of Justice, has previously said she would utilize her Fifth Amendment rights rather than testify. Writes Paul Kiel:
The House Judiciary Committee will meet tomorrow morning in order to vote on whether to offer former Justice Department official Monica Goodling immunity to prosecution.
