President. public trust in our Governments ability to investigate its own wrongdoing has eroded in recent years. Watergate. Koreagate. and ABSCAM all give the public ample reason to question the underlying moral fiber of our Government. Although the Justice Department is charged with the responsibility for investigating complaints of Government wrongdoing. the Department itself has been the target of much criticism. For example. recent New York Times articles on the Departments Immigration and Naturalization Service question its ability to discipline employee misconduct and properly review complaints. As a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee. I am particularly concerned about the justifiable lack of public confidence in the Department of Justice.
