This has been a very busy week-- as I'm sure you have read by now, the Judiciary Committee reached an agreement in our lawsuit [1] to enforce the subpoenas issued in the U.S. Attorney firings investigation.  We will get access to the White House documents, Harriet Miers and Karl Rove will testify, and the Bush Administration's overbroad executive privilege claims have been rejected.
 
Much of the week, for me and a number of colleagues on the Committee, was also spent working on legislation to help families save their homes from foreclosure [2], which the House passed yesterday afternoon.
 
The other focus this week, which of course is always at the front of my mind, has been reforming our failed health care system.  I joined President Obama at the summit he hosted on health care reform [3] at the White House yesterday to discuss how we can make quality health care accessible and affordable for all Americans.
 
I'm in Philadelphia this weekend to continue the discussion on health care with the Physicians for a National Health Plan and PA for Democracy, but I'll try to post more about the work that we accomplished this week in between meetings.
