We need to find areas where we can agree and work together on.

I am pleased today to announce my intention to nominate Tom Loftus as the Ambassador to Norway.

Governor Celeste's proven ability to forge bipartisan consensus will be a great help as Democrats and Republicans work together to reform our health care system.

The United States is playing a leading role in the work of the CWC Preparatory Commission.

I am pleased to announce that William Daley has agreed to serve as Chairman of the administration's Task Force on the North American Free Trade Agreement.

NAFTA is a pathbreaking trade agreement because its implementation will bring a better deal for American workers, companies, and consumers.

There has never been a trade agreement with this kind of environmental protection in it.

I want to reiterate the strong support of the U.S. for the efforts of the Secretary General to carry out his good-offices mandate.

I believe, to be fair, that a lot of the people who are against this agreement were against the original agreement.

Passage of the NAFTA is a high priority of our administration, and the appointment of Bill Daley to coordinate our efforts for its adoption should be viewed as a signal of my personal commitment.

I am heartened to know that Governor Celeste will help in our fight to bring health security to every American.

I think it will help the American economy.

it is important to the national interest that up to $ 6,300,000 of the $ 14,000,000 of the funds previously authorized for use in support of Angolan repatriation be available to meet the urgent and unexpected needs of Mozambican refugees…

This agreement means more trade, more exports, and more jobs for the United States.

It would be tragic if this opportunity to move forward were missed.

The case for NAFTA is strong, and in Bill Daley I have found the strongest possible advocate to make that case.

I believe, as I said repeatedly, that if we could get these side agreements... this trade agreement means a better future for America's workers, for American industry, for the American economy.

I believe that the package of confidence-building measures is fair and balanced.
