The Public Record
Bill Jefferson Clinton served as the 42nd President of the United States from January 20, 1993, to January 20, 2001. A member of the Democratic Party, he previously held the position of Governor of Arkansas from 1983 to 1992. During his presidency, Clinton focused on several key policies, including welfare reform, economic growth, and healthcare reform. His administration is noted for achieving a budget surplus and for the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA).

Do you want to keep this prosperity going and give it to the people who aren't a part of it yet?
I am directing the Secretary of Transportation to take additional steps leading to stronger pipeline safety standards.
I want to take a couple months off to rest, consider what my options are, and then try to spend the rest of my life giving back in the public interest.
You have been so good to me and Hillary and Al and Tipper Gore these last 8 years.
If you really want to build on the progress of the last 8 years, you just have one choice.
Preventing pipeline failures is imperative to protecting our communities and our natural resources.
Recent tragedies in Bellingham, Washington, and near Carlsbad, New Mexico, have underscored the need to improve pipeline safety nationwide.
We want to finish the job of putting 100,000 qualified teachers in our schools.
I have always believed that to succeed over the long run, the Democratic Party would have to prove that we could be fiscally responsible and compassionate.
