On Capitol Hill, six former U.S. attorneys testified Tuesday as part of an investigation into their controversial dismissals from the Justice Department. Each of the attorneys said they received improper contact from government officials or members of Congress both before and after they were asked to resign. In new developments, former Washington state prosecutor John McKay revealed he was contacted by the chief of staff to Republican Congressmember Doc Hastings about an inquiry into voter fraud in the state’s 2004 gubernatorial election. McKay said he ended the call because he found it inappropriate. Another former U.S. attorney, David Iglesias of New Mexico, revealed last week that he was fired after he resisted pressure by two Republican members of Congress to complete a corruption investigation involving Democrats ahead of the November elections. Senator Pete Domenici and Congresswoman Heather Wilson have admitted calling Iglesias but denied they were pressuring or threatening him. Senator Arlen Specter, the ranking Republican on the Senate Judiciary Committee, said: “If the allegations are correct, there has been serious misconduct in what has occurred.”
