I stand in support of this resolution recommending that the House of Representatives find Lois Lerner in contempt of Congress. Our Pledge of Allegiance ends with the words, ``with liberty and justice for all.'' Lois Lerner's actions have made it nearly impossible for us to follow those ideals for the victims of the IRS targeting scandal. She has placed obstacle after obstacle in front of our pursuit for the truth, worrying that her ideology and the actions of a corrupt Federal agency will be exposed. I ask my colleagues to join our effort in promoting transparency in our government. As Members of Congress, it is our job to protect rights, not take them away.
