I also encourage all Americans to join in saluting these individuals for their great sacrifices.

George Munoz has excelled in a variety of ways in both the private and public sectors.

I am confident that he and the rest of Lloyd Bentsen's team at Treasury will keep that key Department running smoothly.

I look forward to receiving the Commission's report within 90 days after appointments to the Commission are completed.

The aviation industry is important not only to our economy, but to our national defense as well.

We are determined to see that vision realized.

Very good.

We think they certainly have what they need to do so.

President Mubarak acknowledged the significance of the arrangements the United States has worked out.

There are assurances to the Palestinians that are very comprehensive and meaningful that should allow them to say yes to the next round.

Therefore, that's what we're urging them to do.

I'm always rethinking that.

I think President Mubarak is going back convinced that the United States not only has made this maximum effort, but that it has achieved significant results.

He made that very clear to us in our discussions over the past two days.

This opportunity must not be missed.

He considers it significant enough for the Palestinians to be able to respond positively.

I still believe that that is the best way to proceed.
