Item — Box: CR 35, Folder: 13

The text is a response to a letter supporting H.R. 1361, which would grant investigators of the Offices of the Inspector General the authority to obtain search and arrest warrants, make felony arrests, and carry firearms. The author expresses support for the role of the Office of the Inspector General but has reservations about arming them, as they believe the Justice Department can provide law enforcement resources when necessary. The bill is currently before the House Judiciary Committee and the author promises to keep the views of the letter writer in mind.
