joining me is john mica of florida. he voted to establish the select committee on benghazi and member of the house committee on oversight and reform. good evening, congressman. >> good to be with you. i am the senior member of the government reform and oversight committee. and, have followed this from the beginning. >> sure. and so, let's look at from the beginning, the house armed services committee of course issued its benghazi report as did the intelligence committee and as did the bipartisan pickering commission. looking at those reports, which findings in them specifically do you find so wrong or incomplete that a new committee and investigation is justified? >> from the very beginning the committee that was set up basically the state department to investigate the state department we found a number of witnesses, key witnesses, were not interviewed, not even -- not consulted. then we found the four committees in the house requesting information. stone walling, redacted information. they spent a lot of time and money

. >> and congress mman john mica, thank you for coming into the program. now let me bring in keith boykin and joe, and what the congressman said contradicts what the brigadier general said. what do you think? >> well, the republicans are grasping at the straws, and john mica should be concerned about the issues of the unmoment imt in florida or the climate change or the wage increases or the things that the american people care about rather than drudging up the benghazi again and again, and in is a loser issue, and the polls show that the american people are not concerned about this as much as other issues like economic issues and it reeks of hypocrisy that spent eight years to defend george bush nine years for the 9/11 failures and the iraq war failure failures and than the four americans who were killed when thousands of americans were dying in the bush administration and so i find this incredibly suspicious is at best. >> and yet, they have give n leader boehner the leeway to investigate the benghazi issue, and so is this the e tea party wing pushing th

because ined established a partnership with the ranking member, the senior florida.n john mica of not just when i took the chairmanship, but prior to that, when i was chair of the aviation -- we did things together. i established and inclusiveness with the republicans. during the years later that we when mr. the minority, shuster of pennsylvania was chairman of the committee, he and i traveled the country in support of a significant increase in our surface transportation bill that became known as t-21. and then, atlanta. at the end of a news conference, the last question was a reporter who said, why are you a democrat, traveling with mr. shuster, a republican? never seenause i've a democratic road or republican bridge rate -- bridge. undaunted, the reporter turned to mr. shuster and said, why are you traveling with a democrat? he said, jim oberstar and i are joined at the hip. we have different viewpoints, but we reached common ground. when we did, we stuck with it. we forged something better for the country. not everyone has the best ideas. if you find common ground, you reach good i

it's the same thing when chairman john mica of the government operations committee of the oversight and government reform committee decides to hold a hearing on d.c.'s marijuana decriminalization laws but none others. two prior hearings have looked at marijuana decriminalization. none has called public officials. be on notice. the district of columbia insist it not be treated any differently from the 18 states that decriminalized marijuana and the states who have legalized it. i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlelady yields back. for what purpose does the gentleman from michigan seek recognition? >> i ask unanimous consent to address the house for one minute. the speaker pro tempore: without objection, the gentleman is recognized. >> thank you, madam speaker. last week i had the pleasure of holding a veterans affairs economic town hall and several houn -- town halls throughout my district. mr. walberg: i heard a growing concern about the increasing government intrusiveness, whether it's in the doctor's office, the classroom or the economy. house republicans understand that

not done at the aegis of the full committee but is under the leadership of the subcommittee hair, john mica. the respect for local control lies at the heart of the formation of the united states of america itself. it was the denial of that respect that led to the revolution that led to the united states. essentially at that time, americans were saying, taxes is a matter for local jurisdiction. it meant the united states. and when the constitution itself was drawn, the framers were at pains to separate out local matters over which the federal government would have no say and no control. mr. speaker, i understand that the house, of course, as well as the senate maintains some control over the district of columbia, that it does not have over other jurisdictions. i assert what should be clear that that is illegitimate control, but at the very least i respect and thank members who have not gone out of their way to violate their own principles of local government to exercise that control as the government reform committee under chairman issa has been clear to do. don't have hearings on the distri
