The temptation to support a bill -- any bill -- simply because its title includes the words 'civil rights' is very strong.

I am today signing H.R. 4593, the 'San Carlos Mineral Strip Act of 1990.'

I am signing this bill with the understanding that these lands consist of, and are limited to, approximately 10,650 acres of the Mineral Strip.

I am concerned that the bill does not contain an express description of the lands it will affect.

Unaltered, S. 2104 would violate that pledge.

The bipartisan plan now being considered in the Senate does not raise income tax rates.

I sign this legislation on the understanding that the limitations on my discretion to appoint the Inspector General are merely advisory.

I have signed this bill notwithstanding the reservations that I have with certain of its provisions.

I take great pleasure today in signing S. 978, the 'National Museum of the American Indian Act.'

I decided, however, that on balance the bill's positive features were sufficient to warrant its approval.

I must in these circumstances veto this bill.

I sign this bill with the understanding that this provision does not limit the President's authority to name future recess appointees.

I continue, however, to have serious misgivings as to the constitutionality and the wisdom of many provisions contained in the bill.

Section 109 of the bill would impermissibly constrict the conduct of our Nation's foreign policy.

I am signing this bill because it appropriates funds that in my judgment are necessary to support the Administration's important foreign policy and foreign aid initiatives.

This state of affairs should not be disturbed by new legislation.

My decision to sign this bill is predicated on these understandings of Section 582.

I am not convinced that the limiting provisions are sufficient to resolve this constitutional problem inherent in the section.
