The following is an excerpt from Louis J. Freeh's recent Congressional testimony:

Quote
May 16, 2001, Wednesday

HEARING OF THE COMMERCE, JUSTICE, STATE AND JUDICIARY SUBCOMMITTEE OF THE HOUSE APPROPRIATIONS COMMITTEE

FISCAL YEAR 2002 APPROPRIATIONS FOR FBI AND DEA

[...]

REP. KENNEDY: ... Do you believe that FBI agents should be subject to polygraph tests?

MR. FREEH: Yes, sir. They all are.

REP. KENNEDY: Who is subject to the polygraph? All of them?

MR. FREEH: Every new employee in the FBI, since 1994.

REP. KENNEDY: Have you been polygraphed since you've been FBI director?

MR. FREEH: No.

REP. KENNEDY: Do you plan to submit to a polygraph test before you resign?

MR. FREEH: One is scheduled.

REP. KENNEDY: Okay. Thank you. I'll yield back the balance of my time.

[...]

Note that there are two Kennedys in the House of Representatives. The one who questioned Director Freeh is Rep. Patrick J. Kennedy, (D-RI).
