The House Judiciary Committee has subpoenaed the Department of Justice to request their records relating to the New Hampshire 2002 phone-jamming case.

In 2002 the state Republican Party paid a political operative to jam the phone lines of the New Hampshire Democratic Party get-out-the-vote effort.

The subpoena says the House Committee wants "complete and unredacted versions, including complete paper and electronic versions, of any and all documents relating to the approval, scope and timing of the investigation and indictments in the matter concerning efforts by Republican operatives to jam telephones of the New Hampshire Democratic Party and others during the 2002 election."

"I am pleased that Chairman Conyers and the House Judiciary Committee are continuing to investigate this matter to give New Hampshire voters the truth to the many unanswered questions regarding this plot to subvert our elections," U.S. Rep. Paul Hodes (D-Concord) said in a statement. "I urge the Bush administration to comply with this subpoena."

Hodes testified earlier this year on the phone-jamming case.
