Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) will join Democratic whip Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) in calling for an investigation discredited White House reporter Jeff Gannon, RAW STORY has learned.

Speaking on condition of anonymity, a Reid aide said the senator had decided to join the call for an investigation today.

“Senator Reid will be signing,” the aide said.

Reid’s decision to sign on makes him the third Senate Democrat to declare their intentions. Reid joins Durbin and Sen. Frank Lautenberg (D-NJ).

Sen. Durbin began circulating a letter to President Bush last night demanding an investigation into how a reporter using a false name and working for a partisan agency got access to the White House. The letter was revealed by RAW STORY Tuesday evening.
