Grassley: Dr. Ford Has Not Yet Accepted Invitation to Testify Monday, ‘Do They Want to Have the Hearing or Not?’

EXCERPT:

HEWITT: "Has Dr. Ford accepted, and she has agreed to come?” 
GRASSLEY: "No. We have reached out to her in the last 36 hours three or four times by email, and we’ve not heard from them, so it kind of raises the question do they want to -- do they want to come to the public hearing or not? And the reason we’re having the public hearing is obviously -- well, number one is accusations like this deserve consideration and looking into, and that’s what the purpose of the hearing is. And we wouldn’t be having this hearing if it wasn’t for the fact that Dr. Ford told the 'Washington Post' and other people publicly that she wanted to testify. And we also have Judge Kavanaugh. Even before -- even before we requested him to testify, he said he was willing to testify. As of Sunday night, I had that message. So we -- we still haven’t heard from Dr. Ford. So do they want to have the hearing or not? We’re delaying the vote, strictly, to get all the facts out on the table."
