     Burbank, California - Michael Moore said Thursday that the Bush  
administration has served him with a subpoena regarding his trip to  
Cuba during the making of his new film, "Sicko."

     The Oscar-winning filmmaker, who appeared Thursday on NBC's "The  
Tonight Show with Jay Leno," said he was notified about the subpoena  
at the network's studios in Burbank, Calif.

     "I haven't even told my own family yet," Moore said. "I was just  
informed when I was back there with Jay that the Bush administration  
has now issued a subpoena for me."

     Moore filmed the trip as part of his film comparing the U.S.  
healthcare system with government healthcare systems in other countries.

     He took three Sept. 11, 2001, emergency rescue workers to  
Guantanamo Bay "because I heard the al-Qaida terrorists we have in  
the camps there, detained, are receiving free dental, medical, eye  
care, the whole deal, and our own (Sept. 11) rescue workers can't get  
that in New York City."

     Moore said the film's distributor, the Weinstein Co., will  
donate 11 percent of "Sicko's" box-office receipts Aug. 11 to "help  
these workers and the other workers who need help."
