Can some please explain this?  Does this document carry the force of law behind it?  In other words, does Ashcroft have to comply with this request?

No, it's just more of the day by day partisanship on the Hill.  It's not unlike you writing a letter to your Congressman demanding he vote a certain way.  You have input, but no authority or jurisdiction.

Well it was nice of you to try and help Thrawn, too. I'd stick with trying to help the simple people though. Same wavelength and all.
