Of course, the enemies list out of the White House that IRS was engaged in shutting down or trying to shut down the conservative political viewpoint across the country, an enemies list that rivals that of another President some time ago.
I think that it is ironic that there are members of this subcommittee who are trying to use this Oversight and Investigations Subcommittee to really be more of a human resources and grievance subcommittee.
May I inquire to the Speaker how much time we have left? The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman from New York has 8 minutes remaining. {time} 2015
Let me thank my good friend and the coanchor for this hour, the gentleman from the Empire State, Mr. Jeffries. Every time we have the opportunity to come to this floor, it is a humbling experience. And to all of my colleagues, led by our…
To the gentleman from New York, as you indicated, this frivolous lawsuit really should not be entirely surprising, and we should not underestimate the lengths that the House Republicans are willing to take against this President. This…
I feel, again, as I have said in previous meetings, that we fail to get all the facts in order to then make a proper decision.
I am not a defender of the IRS or any other Federal agency. I have said from the beginning that I believe that there was wrongdoing.
I want to clarify here, because I don't want Mr. Cain's statements to be taken out of context.
I do share concerns by some of my colleagues on the other side about why the IRS delayed in providing Congress with notification regarding the unrecoverable emails, because it raises questions.
I want to bring to the committee's attention the fact, again, that many of us agree that there was absolutely wrongdoing by the IRS on the handling of the tax-exempt status, and the process was unacceptable, and that people do need to be…
This is not a courtroom. And yet there are those who continue to try to treat it as such.
I still find it astonishing the lack of courtesy that the chairman continues to show to members of this committee.
rather than wasting more taxpayer money on a special prosecutor, Congress should be focused on addressing some other pressing issues facing our constituents.
Despite assurances from the department that Ms. Bosserman is not the lead investigator, Chairman Issa and Chairman Jordan continue to assert that her political donations have created a 'startling conflict of interest.'
I want to say for the record, Mr. Chairman, the Republican Armed Services Chairman, Buck McKeon, just released 100 percent of the transcripts from Benghazi.
I wish that this committee would approach our oversight function in the way that the Department of Justice is approaching its investigation, which is to do so fairly, impartially and without prejudging the facts.
Thank you to the gentlelady for yielding. Mr. Chairman, I come to the floor today to support the amendment offered by my colleague, Congresswoman Dina Titus, from District One. As she has so eloquently indicated and as I stand here today…
I thank the gentlewoman for yielding. First, I want to commend you for your tireless efforts in fighting this dangerous storage of nuclear waste at Yucca Mountain. From your days as a leader as a State legislator to now as a Member of…
The Senate is, once again, poised to act on an important issue facing our country. Today, Senator Dean Heller, from my home State of Nevada, and Senator Jack Reed of Rhode Island announced that they will be working to pass another…
Last night the actual chairman, Chairman Issa, took an extreme action by issuing a unilateral subpoena to the White House.
One other area, in my concluding time, that I would like to have a conversation about is the review of the criteria that credit reporting agencies use in which to measure consumers.
I would like to ask if I can meet with you and members of your staff following your announcement on Thursday so that I can make sure that these initiatives are helping the people who need the relief the most at this time.
Now it appears that Chairman Issa's perspective has changed. With respect to the loss of Ms. Lerner's emails, he believes the loss of her emails is evidence of, 'nefarious conduct.'
The Inspector General, Russell George, told us the same thing, that he identified no evidence of White House involvement.
