                 GOVERNMENT MUST BE A PARTNER IN TRUTH

  (Mr. TRAFICANT asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. TRAFICANT. Mr. Speaker, no doubt the bombing in Oklahoma City was 
an evil act, and those responsible truly deserve the death penalty. But 
April 19, 1995, Oklahoma City, and April 19, 1993, Waco, TX, do not 
appear to be a coincidence to me, and I think the investigation should 
also focus on that. Many Americans simply did not believe the Federal 
Government's account in Waco, TX. And when our Government, Mr. Speaker, 
appears to conceal and hide the truth, our Government plays right into 
the hands of radical fringe groups with an ax to grind.
  Mr. Speaker, the American people deserve to know the truth about 
Oklahoma City; and, Mr. Speaker, the American people deserve the truth 
about Waco, TX. The truth shall set you free, there is no substitute 
for the truth, and the Government must also be a partner in the truth 
factor in America.
