Henry Waxman: “I am pleased to yield 3 minutes to the gentleman from New Jersey (Mr. Holt).”

Mr. Chairman, too much dirty politics is waged with dark money, the secrecy is protected by no privilege, and a little sunlight would be very healthy for American democracy.

Sadly, this deadly habit begins with our kids. In many cases they become hooked quickly and develop a lifelong addiction that is nearly impossible to break.

I think of how Henry Waxman showed America the true face of the tobacco industry, exposing decades of deceit.

It is not for the President to say or to obstruct congressional deliberations and investigations or other legitimate functions.
