Lawmakers to 'make public a national security threat on Capitol Hill'
Three
House Republicans are scheduled to hold a press conference on Wednesday
morning to "make public a national security threat on Capitol Hill."
Reps.
Sue Myrick (R-N.C.), John Shadegg (R-Ariz.) and Paul Broun (R-Ga.) will
hold a 10 a.m. press conference in the Capitol on the homeland security
issue.
The congressional daybook schedule does not provide further details.
According to a source familiar with the issue, the press conference will focus on a non-profit group that has "known terrorist ties."
Myrick sits on the Intelligence Committee and is
founder of the Congressional Anti-Terrorism Caucus. Broun is a member
of the Homeland Security Committee. It is unclear what they will
discuss and why there are no Democrats planning to attend the press
briefing.
Myrick last week launched a national security and
counter-terrorism agenda titled "Wake Up America." This white paper,
which is available on her congressional website, is a revised version
of a similar effort that was released in 2008.
