mr. mayor, go spend your money on another yacht, another lane, or another caribbean estate. our freedom is not for ale. this is the threat we face. it is 24 hours a day, seven days a week thomas at 300 to wo year. a never-ending battle against an anti-gun billionaire who spares no expense to defeat us. and a national news media that expresses contempt for us at every opportunity. despite all of that, i would not bet against us. four months ago, every o-called political expert in america predicted the nra would be defeated by now. the second amendment would be gone. they did not count on you. they underestimated the strength of your convictions. and your dedication to defending freedom, no matter how strong the enemy or big the fight. the truth is, the only reason we are not living under dianne feinstein's gun down right now, not registering our guns with obama's bureaucrats the only reason our freedom exist, is the nra of america and the nra s you. our future depends on young nra members. young nra and numbers like maddie. stand up. here she is. maddie is a high schoo

mr. himes: at the best the media keeps us honest, keeps us in our constitutional lanes, and reports our failuresit is essential for democracy. there is a reason why freedom of the press is not the second or fourth or 10th amendment. it's the first amendment. so, mr. speaker, i'm profoundly concerned over the department of justice's overbroad and chilling behavior with he respect to the associated press. seeking records for 20 phone lines, giving the a.p. no notice. refusing at this point to discuss their behavior feels to me like overreach. mr. speaker, it's time for the department of justice to stand back. you can imagine that there is somebody out there today who has a failure to report, who is chilled and says i will not do that because of the approach of the department of justice has taken. mr. speaker, i'm proud to serve in the very core of democracy that this chamber rests on foundations, and the key part is a free and competent press. i yield back the balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman's time has expired. for what purpose does the gentleman from california seek rec

mr. wolin, for example, would, in fact, have known and known because of this and. i think that's our lane. and i would only say that as chair because our lane is not unlimited. the jurisdiction of the ways and means as the laws governing the irs does not belong in this committee. i do all of us on this committee are very proud, and we do a lot of work. the one thing we don't do is we don't ask tax law. although we all have opinions on it, for sure. the gentleman is recognized. >> thank you, mr. chairman and ask in in this consent to have my full five minutes restored. i mean, it's been interesting listening to the accounts or 118 visits to the white house, mr. shulman. no talk about this specific issue, no talk about related issues during those 118 visits, 130 letters coming from members of congress, 42 articles in newspapers. and, frankly, we just had opportunity now having the press to get engaged with. but 42 over the course of time. i also look at a train of events, september 2010, senate finance committee chairman baucus wrote a letter to the irs asking the irs to serve a tax-exempt
