On the recordMay 25, 2000
I know that the chairman is aware of the illegal activities undertaken by the Department of Agriculture employees at Hunts Point Terminal. These illegal activities have resulted in grave economic losses for produce growers throughout the country. I look forward to working with the chairman to determine the exact scope of the illegal activities so that we may adequately reimburse produce growers for their losses. It is my hope that the committee can fully examine this matter as soon as possible, and I would encourage the chairman and wait for his response to indicate that he would be willing to take a look at this.
