Political Quotes

Madam Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume. Let me be clear. First of all, I thank the gentleman for quoting me so much. I am tremendously honored. I think the quotes that he used just reiterate what I said when I began about how seriously I take this matter. I wouldn't be here if I did not consider this to be very serious. The other thing I would say is that we have made tremendous efforts, and the gentleman knows it because he has helped, working with me to try to get the documents and the things that we need. We have not been able to get them. Madam Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from California (Mr. Gomez).
