He told reporters, "the vice president expressed the concern that a review of what happened on September 11 would take resources and personnel away from the effort in the war on terrorism. I acknowledged that concern, and it is for that reason that the Intelligence Committee is going to begin this effort, trying to limit the scope and the overall review of what happened. But clearly, I think the American people are entitled to know what happened and why."<ref name="TerrorProbe">{{cite news|url=http://edition.cnn.com/2002/ALLPOLITICS/01/29/inv.terror.probe/|title=Bush asks Daschle to limit Sept. 11 probes|date=29 January 2002|website=CNN|quote=Tuesday's discussion followed a rare call to Daschle from Vice President Dick Cheney last Friday to make the same request.}}</ref>
