March 7, 1980 0. ‘ib Representative Peter W. Rodino, Jr. LPO pap, Cae Chairman, House Judiciary Committee } ; 970 Broad Street a Newark, New Jersey MERA Dear Mr. Rodino: YEE It comes as no surprise, but is disgraceful nonetheless, that the House Judiciary Committee would now try to impose controls on the FBI's methods and/or targets of Investigation. I wonder whether this Is prompted by a true concern for individuals’ constitutional rights or by the fact that the results of some of these investigations are proving a little tosembarrassing for some of our public "leaders", Only men and women of the strongest character, able to resist the many temptations which political power occasions, should be allowed to remain In positions through which the lives of so many are profoundly influenced. | The sooner our elected officials understand that they are not above the law, the sooner sthey will start acting in this country's best interest instead of their own self-interest. lI My comment to the FBI: Keep up the good work! Sincerely, ) x cc: Mr. William Webster, Director of the FBI , J. LBx ITEC TK Ace YM ® ad Gi lrb By \t\ BAY © 51980
