BLACK CAUCUS TO PELOSI: WE SUPPORT HASTINGS [Byron York]

CBC officials declined to release the letter itself, but Dandridge told me it was sent yesterday, after CBC members discussed the Hastings issue at their weekly meeting on Wednesday. For the reason this will likely be Pelosi's next headache, see here .
