The top House Republican says Speaker Nancy Pelosi should provide evidence the CIA misled her about harsh interrogation techniques or apologize for her accusation.
Republican leader John Boehner of Ohio says he wants Pelosi to come clean on last week's accusations.
Pelosi says she was not told that waterboarding had been used and said an aide informed her of its use after other lawmakers had been briefed by the CIA in 2003.
Pelosi says the CIA misled her and that she had no idea techniques such as waterboarding were being used.
Republicans say Pelosi is being dishonest. The head of the CIA has defended his agency.
Boehner spoke on CNN's "State of the Union."
