QUESTION: Is Susan Ralston still testifying today?
I don't see anything on the C-SPAN schedule. If she is, is it going to be available to stream anywhere?

3. She Was Supposed To Testify Today
But I don't know that it was ever scheduled. Here is a link to an article saying she had been asked to appear.

8. Here is the link to the Committee's site. She is scheduled to testify there today
but it is probably not in open session, as there are no hearings scheduled.

4. Definitely not publically
Congress is in recess. Whether she's being interviewed privately, I don't know.

11. No, her deposition has been postponed indefinitely per phone call I just made to the committee
I checked the contact info for the committee and found a phone number ( Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, U.S. House of Representatives, 2157 Rayburn House Office Building, Washington, D.C. 20515, (202) 225-5051) so naturally I called. A gentleman told me that her deposition has been postponed indefinitely.

12. Thanks for doing this, Mabus!
I knew if I posted the question, I'd get an answer from someone.

I sure hope they don't give up on getting her to come in -- we need to hear from her under oath -- and SOON!!

14. I told the guy that I found the question on DU and then told him there were huge Waxman fans here
who hoped he would pursue the investigation and get Ralston in to give a deposition. I also told him I'd really love to see it on CSPAN. I also told him that I was in Kansas and let him know that there are some of us in Kansas who are paying attention. He told me he'd pass it on to Waxman that he got an inquiry about the hearing from the heartland. ;)

My policy is: If I can find a phone number, I call. It never hurts.
