White House refuses Whitewater notes before deadline
The White House declined to hand over disputed Whitewater notes by the Senate investigative committee’s final deadline, signaling a probable court showdown. White House spokesman Mark Fabiani said talks continue but the position remains unchanged, while Sen. Alfonso D’Amato predicted notes would be produced before any Senate floor vote. President Clinton stood by the claim that aide William Kennedy's notes from the November 5, 1993, Whitewater meeting exist.
