Contempt citations issued.

In a 22–17 vote, the House Judiciary Committee approved “a Resolution and Report Recommending to the House of Representatives that Former White House Counsel Harriet Miers and White House Chief of Staff Joshua Bolten be cited for Contempt of Congress.” The AP reports, “a vote by the full House would most likely happen after Congress’ August recess.”

UPDATE: The Gavel has updates from the hearing.

UPDATE II: Tony Snow calls the citations “pathetic.”
