DeLay pressured Ashcroft over Indian casino closure
The AP reports Tom DeLay urged the Bush administration to shut down an Alabama Coushatta casino after a Abramoff client donation. The 2001 letter also targeted Justice and officials, signed by Rep. Sessions and others, with no action taken. The casino had been closed in 2000 after a Texas attorney general suit.
