On the recordMarch 2, 1994
I would like to suggest to the Members of this Chamber that it can no longer be business as usual. This afternoon we discussed H.R. 6. We discussed about the growing amount of crime in this country. We discussed about how we are going to instill ethical values in the students of this country. It cannot be business as usual. We cannot simply continue to have the casualness of possible ethical violations of this Chamber. We, as individuals and collectively, have lost the respect of the American people. I think it is important that we be aggressive, that we pass the Istook resolution as an effort to look out after our own, to start policing ourselves. We do not have control of the President and his influence over what happens in the judicial system. I think it is important, if we are going to be leaders in this country, that we be very cognizant and aggressive in pursuing possible ethical violations of our Members.
