Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in support of a resolution that literally is about this institution. And when we look at this, it is about the Department of Justice and the FBI giving documents to this institution so that they can conduct proper oversight. We have had months and months go by with multiple requests where those requests have been largely ignored by the Department of Justice. It is time that the American people actually have the transparency that they deserve in being able to see these documents and let them judge for themselves what did or did not go on within the Department of Justice and FBI. Mr. Speaker, Lady Justice should have a blindfold, and that means that justice should not be meted out to those that are well connected or well financed. It should be even in all regards. Mr. Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from Ohio (Mr. Jordan).
