I applaud the efforts offered today and believe this audit will go a long way to cut waste and save taxpayer money, streamline the process. But let us go a step further. Let us require the audit to include unused office allowance funds. I am concerned. We still do not know what exactly happens to that money. Many of us agree funds left over from our office budgets should not be reprogrammed, but instead returned to the Federal Treasury for deficit reduction. Let us use this opportunity to find the means to that end. This audit will ensure that House operations are efficient and effective, and this investigation will ensure this audit is complete.
