                              S. RES. 445

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, the Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations 
of the Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs has 
received a request from a federal law enforcement agency seeking access 
to records that the Subcommittee obtained during its recent 
investigation into how politically powerful foreign officials, their 
relatives and close associates have used the services of United States 
professionals and financial institutions to bring large amounts of 
suspect funds into the United States to advance their interests and to 
circumvent United States anti-money laundering and anti-corruption 
safeguards.
  This resolution would authorize the Chairman and Ranking Minority 
Member of the Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, acting jointly, 
to provide records, obtained by the Subcommittee in the course of its 
investigation, in response to this request and to other government 
entities and officials with a legitimate need for the records.
