The compelling evidence in this case satisfies the intent element required under both sections 1621 and 1623 of the Federal Criminal Code.

The President of the United States, the chief law enforcement officer of this land, lied under oath.

I look forward to working with the aviation community, the Administration, and others on this.

I cannot conceive of a circumstance where I would support an increase in federal taxes.

The only thing worse than paying taxes is paying the tax and then not getting the promised benefit from it.

1999 will be the year of aviation.

I am again standing before Congress requesting that the Transportation Trust Funds be treated fairly.

The section of this bill prohibiting the federal government from using identifiers to monitor private transactions is necessary to stop schemes such as the attempt to assign every American a 'unique health identifier'.

In a constitutional republic the people are never asked to sacrifice their liberties to make the job of government officials a little bit easier.

The federal government has no right to treat all Americans as criminals by spying on their relationship with their doctors, employers, or bankers.

This act forbids the federal government from establishing any national ID cards or establishing any identifiers for the purpose of investigating, monitoring, overseeing, or regulating private transactions between American citizens.

The primary reason why any action short of the repeal of laws authorizing privacy violation is insufficient is because the federal government lacks constitutional authority to force citizens to adopt a universal identifier.

Perhaps the most important part of the Freedom and Privacy Restoration Act is the section prohibiting the use of the Social Security number as an identifier.

Congress risks provoking a voter backlash if we fail to halt the growth of the surveillance state.

Forcing parents to register their children with the state is more like something out of the nightmares of George Orwell than the dreams of a free republic which inspired this nation's founders.

The Freedom and Privacy Restoration Act halts the greatest threat to liberty today: the growth of the surveillance state.

I therefore hope my colleagues will join my efforts to protect the freedom of their constituents by supporting the Freedom and Privacy Restoration Act of 1999.

It would not be a national tragedy if Clinton listened to them.
