West Virginia's three U.S. House members - Reps. Alan Mollohan, D-1st, Shelley Moore Capito, R-2nd, and Nick Rahall, D-3rd - voted for the "Free Flow of Information Act of 2007."
The measure, which passed the House 398-21, aims to "maintain the free flow of information to the public by providing conditions for the federally compelled disclosure of information by certain persons connected with the news media."
President Bush has been advised to veto the bill, in a White House statement issued Tuesday.
The Associated Press reports on the "media shield bill."
