                          ADAM SCHIFF CENSURE

  (Mr. BIGGS asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. BIGGS. Mr. Speaker, today, I will make the motion regarding H. 
Res. 630, a motion to condemn and censure the chairman of the House 
Intelligence Committee, Adam Schiff.
  I am going to let some of my colleagues explain further, but I want 
to explain to you what the rules are designed to do in the body that we 
serve in. They are designed to protect the voice and the rights of the 
minority. That is the way it is.
  The majority does not need the rules to protect its rights because it 
has the power to vote at any time what it wants to happen. But we 
follow rules so that all Americans can be represented, even when they 
are represented by the minority party.
  That is not happening today. That is why we have to introduce this 
motion to censure. No more secret proceedings. No more Soviet-style 
proceedings.
  Mr. Speaker, I urge all to vote for my motion to censure.
