Boehner to testify Thursday
From The National Journal's PM Update:
The House ethics committee today questioned Majority Leader John Boehner's chief of staff, Paula Nowakowski, for nearly three hours about what she knew of former Rep. Mark Foley's e-mails to teenage male congressional pages.
Boehner, a Republican from West Chester whose 8th District includes most of Butler County, is expected to testify Thursday.
Nowakowski is one of the top House aides who is believed to have had prior knowledge of e-mails sent by Foley, R-Fla., to the page before the story broke last month.
Boehner has said he was first told about Foley's contact with the page this spring by Rep. Rodney Alexander, R-La. He said he discussed the situation with Nowakowski and House Speaker Dennis Hastert. But Hastert has said he learned of the e-mails for the first time when the story broke. Alexander is expected to testify Wednesday.
