Code Pink red with anger

Staff

Four women from Code Pink, a group that protests injustice and the Iraq War, discuss their encounter with staff of the House Subcommittee on Commercial and Administrative Law and the United States Capitol Police at a hearing in which former White House Deputy Chief of Staff Karl Rove failed to appear under subpoena. The women were told to remove clothing with political statements and hats under threat of arrest. The women accuse the committee of censorship and say that Rove suffers no consequences for failing to come before Congress while they are threatened with arrest for expressing their right to free speech.
