``When a person dies in service to his country, and his own government may have contributed to his death, covered up evidence about the circumstances, or both, the survivors` families and the American people have a right to know the truth. That was the case with Pat Tillman, and it`s the case with Brian Terry. The government should own up to any policies and practices that led to the harm of Mexican citizens as well. Those who don`t seem to want the truth or accountability default to accusations of political motivation against those seeking answers. Remember, the Justice Department insisted there was no gun walking, then retracted that statement and reversed itself. The Justice Department is proven unreliable on this topic. The only way to try to get an accurate, complete account of what happened to Agent Terry and why is to obtain every possible record and account of the facts. We can only draw fair, informed conclusions from the complete facts. The fulfillment of the House`s pursuit of complete records from the Justice Department is necessary. Without it, we might never know what happened to Agent Terry. That can`t stand.``
