House Republicans want
phone transcripts released
WASHINGTON (AIM — A
group of 10<) House Ropubll
( ws on Thursday appealed to
President Bush to declassify
! ransoripts of conversations bo
Iwi'i ii members of Congress
,md officials of the former San
(ijnista government of Nicara
gua.
The conversations were
picked up by U.S. counter
intelligence efforts in the mid
1980s, during a time when
American policy toward Nica
ragua was among the most hot
ly contested of political issues
in Congress.
Led by Rep Mickey Ed
wards, R-Okla . the group asked
Bush in a letter, to make rec
ords of the conversations pub
lic bouiuse they an> "potential
ly so damaging to national se
curity and to tlie reputation of
the House of Representatives
that we believe the American
people have the right to a full
public review."
The intercepted conversa
tions wore confirmed last week
in testimony before the Senate
Intelligence Committee by Alan
I) Tiers, a former CIA official
who pleaded guilty to two mis
demeanor counts in the Iran
Contra afluir.
T iers said he was outraged af
ter lie learned of contacts be
tween Democratic House mem
bers and their staff with the
Sandinlstn government, anil
prompted then-CIA Director
William Casey to confront one
lawmaker, Democrat Michael
Barnes of Maryland, who no
longer is a member of the
House.
But Senate Intelligence Com
mittee Chairman David Boren,
D-Okla , said preliminary re
ports from the CIA havo turned
up no evidence that anything
improper was conveyed in the
conversations.
One House member in
volved, Democratic Whip Da
vid Bonior of Michigan, said
the private conversations wore
to relay what members also
wore saying publicly: that the
Sandinistas should free politi
cal prisoners, allow freedom of
the press and make other re
forms.
Bonior, Barnes and other
Democrats have sought to turn
tin: issue around, saying the use
of anything in an intercepted
conversation for political pur
poses is improper.
Asked on Wednesday wheth
er Bush would release the inter
cepted conversations, White
House spokesman Marlin Filz
water said, "We don’t have a
position on that issue."
But he added, “Wo have al
ways expressed our disappoint
ment in situations when; Dem
ocratic members of Congress
chose to become directly in
volved in foreign policy mat
ters. And th.it, of course, is a
matter of great concern to us."
