Bill Clinton

I am pleased to announce that Karen Tramontano will be serving as my Chief of Staff in my Post-Presidency Transition Office.

I tried to walk a line between acting lawfully and testifying falsely.

I urge the next administration to build on our progress and take the steps necessary to allow the United States to eventually sign the Ottawa Convention.

I hereby report that I have exercised my statutory authority to declare a national emergency in response to the unusual and extraordinary threat posed to the foreign policy of the United States by Sierra Leone's insurgent Revolutionary…

Don't give up on the pursuit of peace.

The successes of the American Heritage Rivers initiative are a tribute to the efforts of thousands of citizens all across America.

I will not seek any legal fees incurred as a result of the Lewinsky investigation.

I hereby notify you of my decision to remove Lithuania from the list of countries covered under section 1211(b).

Thank you. God bless you, and God bless America.

This Administration is strongly committed to the success of the Conference.

The Secretary shall also initiate the process to designate the Reserve as a National Marine Sanctuary, as required by the Act.

This Administration has consistently demonstrated a strong commitment to issues of race and race relations.

By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, including the National Marine Sanctuaries Act.

The new level above which an individual license will be required for exports to Tier 3 countries is 85,000 MTOPS.

I am proud of the progress we have made and am confident that it will serve as a foundation upon which our Nation can continue to meet the profound challenge of climate change.

We must remember that America cannot lead in the world unless here at home we weave the threads of our coat of many colors into the fabric of one America.

I am profoundly grateful to you for twice giving me the honor to serve.

In an era of decentralization of Federal human resources management, it is increasingly important to ensure that merit system principles are applied consistently across the Federal Government.

Tonight is my last opportunity to speak to you from the Oval Office as your President.

Our economy is breaking records with more than 22 million new jobs.

I applaud the leadership and hard work of Energy Secretary Bill Richardson and his staff for bringing these consumer savings and environmental benefits to the American public.

These standards once again demonstrate that environmental protection and economic growth go hand in hand.

I will never hold a position higher or a covenant more sacred than that of President of the United States.

Tonight I want to leave you with three thoughts about our future.

America must maintain our record of fiscal responsibility.
