powered by BaynoteFormer Bush advisers Karl Rove and Harriet Miers have agreed, in a deal with a House panel, to testify on the firings of nine U.S. attorneys that led to accusations that the Bush Justice Department was politicized.
Rove, who served as a political adviser to former president Bush, and Miers, former White House Counsel, will testify in transcribed depositions under the penalty of perjury before the House Judiciary Committee.
The committee says it also might call the two for public testimony.
The agreement reached Wednesday ends a lawsuit over whether former White House aides could be forced to testify about matters on which they advised the president.
Bush had ordered the aides not to testify on the matter.
