Bill Clinton

We are bringing the deficit down for 3 years in a row for the first time since Harry Truman was President.

Best wishes to all for a joyous Rosh Hashana and a peaceful new year.

This Bath Iron Works is coming back because Stoney and Buzz and all the other people put aside their differences to find something they could say yes to.

Our administration has fought for change against some very, very powerful enemies of change.

If we're going to keep the American dream of opportunity alive for everybody who's willing to work hard and play by the rules, I believe we must do three things.

We can create more jobs. We can empower you to seize those jobs.

Warm greetings to all who are celebrating Rosh Hashana in this promising year of renewal.

The partnership here that you've heard these people detail between labor and management is the thing I came here to highlight.

This year, in the same courageous spirit, we have seen new, bold steps in the peace process.

I ran for President because I thought this country was in danger of going in the wrong direction.

Our work won't be done until all Americans enjoy the dignity of work, the security of worldclass skills, and the opportunity to build a life for themselves and their children that is better.

Restoring opportunity, honoring work and family and community, that's what this administration and our mission are all about.

Those shipyard workers in Maine exemplify the best in the American spirit, the understanding that when we pull together for the common good we are unstoppable.

The American way is to offer opportunity and challenge people to make the most of it.

We want to reach out and work with all the elements in Ireland, in Northern Ireland.

The United States has tried to be a friend of peace in Ireland, and we will continue to do that.

We want all the communities to feel a part of the peace process and to feel that there is a peace dividend.

Today's world demands that we reinvent the compact between labor and management.

We take time out of our busy schedules to recognize and to appreciate the importance of America's working men and women.

We have the power to build a new partnership for prosperity.

Our goal must be to make the Dream a reality for all of our families.

These considerations, as well, lead me to conclude that the substantially larger pay increase that would otherwise automatically go into effect is not appropriate at this time.

I congratulate the people of Estonia, Germany, Latvia, and Russia on this historic occasion.

I hereby determine that it is important to the security interests of the United States to furnish assistance to South Africa, in the form of Housing Guaranty loans of up to $ 75 million.

These withdrawals constitute the final departure of Russian troops that have been present in Eastern Europe since 1945.
