Napolitano to appear before Senate
04/24/09 08:27 AM ET
Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) has just announced that Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano will testify before the Senate Judiciary Committee, her first appearance before Congress since the firestorm errupted over a recent DHS report.
Napolitano will testify at a Homeland Security oversight hearing on May 6.
Republicans have been calling for Napolitano's resignation over an assessment the DHS issued warning of "rightwing extremism."
Among other findings, the report concluded that returning veterans might become radicalized and violent.
Rep. John Carter took to the floor of the House yesterday to call for Napolitano's resignation.
"Fire that woman!" he exclaimed.
