The main witness Congress wants is former White House counsel Harriet Miers, who supposedly has the inside scoop on the White House's role in the firing of insufficiently orthodox U.S. attorneys in 2006. Lawyer for the House of Representatives Irv Nathan argued that rather than don the cloak of executive privilege to get out of testifying altogether, she should be made to get on the stand, where she could invoke executive privilege on a question-by-question basis.
