Goodling Testimony
Monica Goodling served in the Department of Justice and was the Justice Department's liaison to the White House. As such, she had helped coordinate the dismissal of the attorneys with the White House. Congress had called Goodling to testify regarding her role in the dismissals, but after originally agreeing to appear, Goodling cancelled, citing the Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination. On April 6, 2007, Monica Goodling resigned from her position at the Department of Justice.

Famous quotes containing the word testimony:
“Reason is natural revelation, whereby the eternal father of light, and fountain of all knowledge, communicates to mankind that portion of truth which he has laid within the reach of their natural facilities: Revelation is natural reason enlarged by a new set of discoveries communicated by God immediately, which reason vouches the truth of, by the testimony and proofs it gives, that they come from God.”
—John Locke (1632–1704)
