Congress won't let Downing Street Minutes fade away.

According to RAW STORY, Representative John Conyers (D-MI) and 51 other Congress Members have filed a Freedom of Information Act request to the White House, the Department of Defense, and the Department of State seeking any and all documents and materials concerning the Downing Street Minutes and the lead up to the Iraq war.

By law, there must be a reply to the request within 20 business days.

Members also formally requested that the House Committees on Judiciary, Armed Services, International Relations, and the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence commence hearings on the Downing Street Minutes.

Let the frog march begin.
