The AIA has put its version of what happened at the CPAC hearing on the proposed Greek MOU on its website: http://www.archaeological.org/news/advocacy/3202
Not surprisingly, Prof. La Follette has emphasized different things. More disappointingly, La Follette has also glossed over some items that are significant. For example, nothing is said about the 70% of the public comments opposed to the MOU or its extension to coins or the fact that Greece allows its own coin collectors to import any unprovenanced ancient coins they want.
I've posted a link to my own summary on the AIA blog, but it has yet to appear.
