Senate panel to vote on Tulsi Gabbard's nomination on Tuesday: Sources
The Senate Intelligence Committee is set to vote on former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard’s nomination for director of national intelligence on Tuesday, sources told ABC News.

Gabbard faced skeptical lawmakers last week during her confirmation hearing, when she was grilled on her controversial rhetoric on Russian aggression, her meeting with former Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad and her support for Edward Snowden.
Gabbard defended her decision not to label Snowden a traitor during her confirmation hearing in an op-ed published over the weekend. In it, she also included a "four-point plan to prevent future Snowden-like leaks."
