WASHINGTON (CNN) -- The House majority leader late Tuesday tried to
deflect criticism of the federal response to Hurricane Katrina by
saying "the emergency response system was set up to work from the
bottom up," then announced a short time later that House hearings
examining that response had been canceled.
Rep. Tom DeLay, R-Texas, said House Republican leaders instead want a
joint House-Senate panel set up to conduct a "congressional review"
of the issue.
Tempers flared Tuesday during a contentious closed-door meeting
between House members and Cabinet secretaries in charge of directing
Katrina relief efforts. A Republican representative stood up and
said, "All of you deserve failing grades. The response was a
disaster," CNN was told by lawmakers emerging from the meeting.
But DeLay countered that assessment later in a news conference by
saying that the onus for responding to emergencies fell to local
officials.
