To designate the United States Post Office building located at 33 College Avenue in Waterville, Maine, as the 'George J. Mitchell Post Office Building'

I urge the Congress to pursue this legislation—adding to it if possible.

They're trying to cut the crime bill we passed last year to provide 100,000 police on our streets.

I hereby extend for an additional 2 years both the moratorium imposed by that section and all actions taken by my predecessors under that section.

Let us now immediately take up in the Senate the line-item veto, and let's pass it.

The Brady law, in that sense, is one of the things that I'm proudest of that has happened since I have been President.

You can mark my words, the Brady law and the assault weapons bill are here to stay.

H.R. 1022, however, is an extreme measure that would exacerbate some of the very problems with the regulatory system that it seeks to address.

H.R. 450 would impose a moratorium that would stop rules from being issued regardless of their merit.

I'm optimistic that we'll pass it because more often than not in very difficult issues the Congress does the right thing.

We should not repeal the assault weapons ban.

Congressional Accountability Act of 1995

I know there are still serious differences over the details of the unfunded mandates legislation.

We are beginning the new year with a reform that requires Congress to live under the laws it imposes on the American people.

This legislation ensures that we'll change that.

Now when Congress passes a law, it will immediately know the consequences of the law if it affects private employers as well.

I want to commend the Congress for passing the Congressional Accountability Act of 1995 today.

However, while this legislation is an important political reform, it is only the first step in what must be a greater effort to change business-as-usual in Washington.
