 Contempt puts the Justice Department, which is controlled by Merrick Garland, in charge of taking action against the person. By holding an inherent contempt, we put the responsibility back in the hands of Congress, where it belongs. This resolution fines the Attorney General $10,000 every day he continues to defy the congressional subpoenas and hand over those tapes. Some folks don't want us doing this right now, and I understand that. It is an election year.
