YNN Austin: Rep. Doggett criticizes Holder contempt vote

U.S. Rep. Lloyd Doggett is criticizing a House committee vote to hold U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt, for his refusal to hand over documents related to the 'Fast and Furious' operation.

He released this statement today:

"Families along I-35 have plenty of contempt for Congress unresponsive because of politically-motivated distractions like today's contempt vote. While any executive privilege should be construed narrowly, this Committee went too fast and folks have reason to be furious that this Republican Congress is ignoring real concerns, like greater economic opportunity, more affordable healthcare, and stronger public education."
