The House's need for all the facts surrounding suspected Presidential offences cannot of course be circumscribed by an executive determination of what is relevant.

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.

Because of the time when nothing was being done to address global warming, we are now faced with the fact that tomorrow is today.

I hope this committee will initiate a detailed investigation examining this network of front groups and trade associations, determine who funds them and expose how they coordinate with industry.
