                                BENGHAZI

  (Ms. NORTON asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. NORTON. Mr. Speaker, Republicans are trying to tar anyone in 
sight with Benghazi. Next they're going for the former Joint Chief of 
Staff and a former Ambassador who did the investigation. But their 
investigation mandate was not talking points. It was:

       Whether the attacks were security related; whether security 
     systems and procedures were adequate and implemented 
     properly.

  They have found that they most definitely were not, resulting in four 
tragic deaths. Talking points say a lot about bureaucratic in-fighting. 
We have yet to get to the real investigation of the causes and most 
especially how to prevent another Benghazi. That is our mission. Let's 
get to it this week.
