BILL HEMMER, CNN ANCHOR: CNN confirming news out of Wallingford, Connecticut. Apparently a white powdery substance has been found at a mail office there. Testing is under way. But we are told that no one has been taken to the hospital. The facility was not evacuated. It still remains open. This in Wallingford, Connecticut.
We do expect a press conference in Washington on Capitol Hill right about 7:50 a.m. Eastern time, which is about 30 minutes away, to talk more about the substance found yesterday, late yesterday afternoon in the offices of Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, so stay tuned for all of that a bit later this hour.
