If the President wishes to say that every time he micro manages whether we get our documents pursuant to our oversight...

this is our watch to make sure that we keep our environment clean, safe, all the things that you try to do

My first request for documents was greeted with a please submit a FOIA, as though we were the public...

Elections have consequences.

the President of the United States has told them in no uncertain terms if they get here, he won't enforce the law

This is my watch. This is my time.

The legislative liaisons that we deal with every day work for the White House more than they work for you.

Lois Lerner has been referred for criminal charges, multiple criminal charges by the Ways and Means Committee and held in contempt by the full House.

Our duty on the Oversight and Government Reform Committee is to protect these rights.

I would like to recognize, sir, Congressman Daryl Issa and sympathetic staff of the White House of the Clinton-Bush administrations.

The fact is that corporations in America, if they take in, let's just say that they're providing a computer service, if they take in a million dollars and they spend a million dollars doing support and they have nothing left over at the…

I quite honestly do not understand how Chairman Issa was able to rush to issue this subpoena...
