       INVESTIGATE RUSSIA'S INVOLVEMENT IN OUR NATIONAL ELECTIONS

  (Mr. GARAMENDI asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. GARAMENDI. Mr. Speaker, I remember well the investigations that 
Congress undertook in the Nixon period--the Watergate investigations.
  Frankly, I am appalled at the way in which this House is conducting 
its investigations. It is high time that we have an independent 
investigation.
  The reality has changed since the sixties and seventies. We now have 
24-7 cable TV, and everything seems to be momentarily disclosed. We 
can't continue. We need an independent investigation of this extremely 
important issue of Russia's involvement in our national elections.
