“I appreciate the two-on-one here. No, that is fine. I am just kidding you guys. Here is the deal. Not only is this critical that you hold people accountable, but this person, this Director lied in response to a question from Representative Cloud on this particular issue, on these issues that we were talking about in testimony in the approps oversight hearing earlier this year. It is my opinion that if we fail to hold this person accountable, then we are going to see like things happen in the future. When you provide a specific deterrent, you also provide a general deterrent, and that is the way a justice system works. That is the way you hold people accountable. Mr. Chair, in closing, I appreciate my colleagues who don't want to see this done. It is not unconstitutional to do this. This is a good way to hold people accountable. That is one of the jobs of the United States Congress, to hold people accountable. What did the Founders give us? They gave us the purse strings. In this instance, it seems to me that this individual should have her salary eliminated. Mr. Chair, I yield back the balance of my time.”
