Yes. Even better would be statements like Wyden and Udall have made. They should say something like:
"We won't lie to you, but we think this information should be public and if you knew what we know, then you'd be writing and calling your representative urging them to allow us to talk about it."
They could go even farther by passing judgement with the addition "... because what is being done in the name of the average citizen presents an existential threat to democracy and the betterment of a free and open society."
