EPA Delays Release of Jackson Emails After White House Review Issa subpoenas EPA for records
Free Beacon ^ | 11/11/13 | CJ Ciaramella

The Environmental Protection Agency delayed releasing emails from former administrator Lisa Jackson’s secret account to congressional investigators after conferring with the White House, top Republicans on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee and Senate Committee on Environment and Public works said.

Oversight Chairman Darrell Issa (R., Calif.) in a letter released Friday subpoenaed EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy for emails with White House officials regarding the agency’s response to congressional requests.

“Troubling information has recently been brought to my attention that raises questions about the reasons for EPA’s lack of cooperation with the Committee,” Issa wrote. “An email produced in response to a FOIA requests from a non-profit group suggests that the White House may have played a role in EPA withholding information from Congress.”

Issa and Sen. David Vitter (R., La.) sent a letter to McCarthy in April requesting correspondence between her and former EPA Administrator Jackson, who used a secret email account under the alias “Richard Windsor.”

It's difficult to do much of anything when 0bama puts up a bunch of females as his human shields, some of whom are protected under the 'race' class not just the 'gender' class..

The 'keepers of the gate' in the IRS are nearly all female, as well as in the Benghazi fiasco. This is how 0bama rolls; the female human shield surrounds him, ready to pounce with cries of 'SEXIST!' in response to any questioning.

Another Issa subpoena??

Ho-hum.

When I was a tyke, I hunted mourning doves with a BB gun. Same success rate as Issa, but at least there was always a chance one might dodge the wrong way.

Good points.

This is pretty much how the entire FedGov rolls.... Women are the leaders more than one might realize.

So...then...what do you do when someone doesn’t obey a subpoena? I don’t know, I guess I am asking you.

I don’t think people don’t respond to a subpoena

Since documents are involved, I would think the game players might respond with redacted documents
