“The only thing that agencies in this town respect is funding. Indeed, reduced funding is the only way that we will bring them back to their core mission. This agency has had a 44 percent increase in funding, and yet, they have taken that money, and what they have done to our First Amendment civil liberties, to our rights, is they have spied upon us.

Mr. Chair, I yield back the balance of my time.”
