         CONGRESS MUST INVESTIGATE CHINESE POLITICAL DONATIONS

  (Mr. TRAFICANT asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. TRAFICANT. Madam Speaker, California businessman Johnny Chung 
gave $300,000 to the Democrat National Committee. Chung said he got the 
money from a member of the Chinese army.
  Surprise. This is the same guy Chung who said, my donations are 
subway tokens for a train ride to the White House. Train ride, folks. 
How about a free ride? Maybe a joy ride.
  Let us tell it like it is. This is not about tokens, coffees, the 
Lincoln bedroom, Bill Clinton, Democrats or Republicans. This is about 
national security, folks. And Americans did not give their lives in 
foreign wars to have the Chinese Communists buy our freedom. Beam me 
up. Congress must investigate this Chinese connection.
  I yield back what national security I have left.
