On the recordMay 22, 2000
well, it took almost 2 years, but memos from FBI Director Louis Freeh regarding the Democratic fund-raising scandal have finally been turned over to Congress. Perhaps the Clinton administration was hoping that the memos would never turn up, especially since they state that key administration officials were under a lot of pressure not to go forward with the investigation because the Attorney General's job might hang in the balance. The American people have a right to expect the Department of Justice to investigate wrongdoing, no matter where it may occur. Mr. Speaker, the Clinton administration is not exempt from the laws of our Nation. It is my hope that the ongoing congressional hearings and investigations into these scandals will reveal the truth once and for all. I yield back the continuing scandals and illegal cover-ups that have become an unfortunate characteristic of this administration.
