Critz Statement on the Contempt of Congress Vote

Statement

Congressman Mark S. Critz (PA-12) issued the following statement after the House of Representatives voted to find Eric H. Holder, Jr., Attorney General, U.S. Department of Justice, in contempt of Congress:

"While I disagree with the way House Republicans have handled this entire investigation, we have an obligation to get to the bottom of this serious allegation of federal law enforcement misconduct. At the end of the day, Congress has the responsibility to provide effective oversight of government programs and taxpayer funds, and it's time to put this issue behind us and focus on what the American people really care about -- creating jobs and strengthening our economy."
