Toyota’s CEO and President Akio Toyoda, who admitted yesterday he feels “ashamed” of the motor company’s latest recall troubles, will be asked to meet with lawmakers on Capitol Hill when he reportedly plans on visiting the U.S. in the coming weeks.
Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA), a ranking member of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, said today that he will ask Toyoda to meet with the congressional panel and will request the committee’s chairman Rep. Edolphus Towns (D-NY) also invite Toyoda to a hearing scheduled Feb. 24.

Barnyard, DC reeks with the self righteousness of those who wallow in indignation….
