On the recordSeptember 12, 1996
I heard 1990. I just did not want another comment about something in anticipation, so the gentlewoman can at least finish her statement, in all due respect. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentlewoman may proceed in order. Ms. DeLAURO. Mr. Speaker, a further historical, further perspective. I quote from Congressman Gingrich at the time in 1989: ``The 435 Members of theHouse should look at all of the facts, should have available to them all of the reports and all of the background documents, and the American people should have the same.'' Indeed, the American people are owed the same. Release the report. ____________________
