Bill Clinton

I herewith report 24 proposed rescissions of budgetary resources, totaling $20 million.

We want to rehabilitate or build 5,000 more schools.

I didn't ground him. Don't get too carried away with the school metaphors here.

No one in America doubts that we have the finest system of higher education in the world.

That's the worst thing you can do.

I feel very good about where America is.

These are good times.

We are on the right side of history, and we have to keep fighting for these things.

I want Congress to do that, but if Congress doesn't do it I'm going to go ahead with a plan.

We must address the largest remaining challenge to cleaning our waters.

We should be thinking about how we can use this moment to look to the future and to build it.

I think it's very important that we not be complacent.

We have to continue to fight against the impulse to withdraw from the rest of the world in terms of trade.

The time to fix the roof is not when it's raining.

I'm proud to be a Democrat.

No one who works 40 hours a week and raises kids should be in poverty in this country.

There are still a lot of Americans who have not been caught up in this economic prosperity.

I want to pass a health care bill of rights.

If you can keep kids involved in constructive activities between 3 o'clock in the afternoon and 7 at night, we're going to be in good shape in this country.

We want to triple the number of empowerment zones.

Now, one of the proposals that I have put forward... is a proposal that would permit us to take some of the funds that will come out of a comprehensive resolution of the tobacco issue.

It is simply not true that taking further steps to clean our water is a threat to the economy.

There is hereby established the Special Oversight Board for Department of Defense Investigations of Gulf War Chemical and Biological Incidents.

It would be a real mistake for our country to be relaxed about where we are instead of to feel that this is an enormous opportunity.

Included as part of this action plan are over 100 specific commitments, standards to be set, partnerships to be built.
