Democrat says US-India nuclear agreement breaks law Bush signed

"If the US-India agreement is really consistent with the letter and spirit of the Hyde Act, as the administration claims, why won't they release the text?" Rep. Ed Markey (D-MA) asked in a statement released his office late on Friday.
President Bush signed the United States-India Peaceful Atomic Energy Cooperation Promotion Act in December. The bill was honorarily named after Rep. Henry Hyde (R-IL), who chaired the Committee on International Relations when it was concluded. The bill put a series of restrictions on concessions that the US was allowed to make to India in order to secure its cooperation with international safeguards on nuclear fuel supplies. Raw Story
