On the recordJanuary 31, 1995
I think the FDIC is looking into this already, because it involves taxpayers' moneys and loans from the Federal Government. And so I think that the FDIC is going to look into this at the request I believe of Chairman Clinger and others. I also think there should be an audit of Mr. Brown's tax returns because of the tremendous amounts of money and loans that were given to him and were forgiven, to see if they were declared as income. So I think there should be a number of agencies involved in this investigation: FDIC, the IRS, independent counsel, as well as the House and Senate Committees on Government Oversight.
