Joseph Morelle actually said...

"Thank you for holding this incredibly important hearing."

"Thanks to all the brave men and women of the Capitol Police, the FBI, and other law enforcement for the work they do each and every day to keep the American people safe."

"If they were serious about this investigation and supported law enforcement efforts, then they would not have cut critical funding for Federal law enforcement needed to solve these crimes and others."

"I must admit, I am perplexed as to why we are here for a public hearing on an active and ongoing Federal criminal investigation."
