              SUPPORTING THE SELECT COMMITTEE ON BENGHAZI

  (Mr. MARCHANT asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. MARCHANT. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to support the establishment 
of the select committee on Benghazi.
  Constituents in my district demand to know what really happened on 
September 11, 2012, in Libya. Almost 2 years have passed, and Congress 
continues to get stonewalled by the administration. The most serious of 
these offenses is that the terrorists who are responsible for this 
action have not yet been brought to justice.
  The creation of a House select committee is a serious matter. We owe 
this to the families and loved ones that were lost. This is the best 
way forward to uncover what actually happened. Under the leadership of 
Congressman Trey Gowdy, I am confident we will get to the bottom of 
this.
  I urge all of my colleagues to join me in supporting the creation of 
the select committee on Benghazi.
