The title of this hearing is congressional oversight in the face of executive branch and media suppression, and in particular case study of the crossfire hurricane, corrupt investigation. Ill add that. The hearing is actually quite a bit broader than that. But well certainly focus on that. I became chairman of this committee in january of 2015 and will complete my sixyear term at the end of this month. We can all be proud of the more than 100 piece of legislation we worked on together as a committee that became law. The other than more than 200 bills we passed out of committee, although not signed into law, can still serve as the basis for future legislation. Our committee and subcommittees also have broad oversight jurisdiction, and responsibilities that we have not ignored. We investigated and exposed problems within the Va Health Care system, human trafficking, National Security leaks, and systemic violations of the hatch act within the
Good Tuesday Morning im Carl Quintanilla with jon fortt and Julia Boorstin apple is going to be the story of the hour. Their new event is just hours away expected to unveil the latest edition of the iphone, jon likely story of the week in my book. Thats where well start this morning. Joanna stern off the wall street journal joins us product reviewer extraordinary air.
