For 5 straight years before I took office, violent crime increased in America. Because of our tough and smart decisions to put more cops on the street and get kids, guns, and drugs off the street, we are now beginning to reverse the trend…

There is another benefit to you that we heard them all practicing, which is you won't have to endure our impulse sing-along night.

I am writing to express my strong support for The Adoption Promotion and Stability Act of 1996.

I'm glad to be here tonight with our guest speaker.

To be a member of the Federal Mine Safety and Health Review Commission for a term of 6 years expiring August 30, 2002 (reappointment)

I continue to believe that if we were to work together in a bipartisan and open fashion we can craft the right kind of legal reform.

I'm deeply honored to join with you tonight in honoring two of America's finest citizens, two of the world's greatest human resources, Billy and Ruth Graham.

Well, we will issue an announcement after the meeting; the Secretary of Agriculture will. Yes, we're going to act quickly. We won't fool around with it. Thank you very much.

Well, and for the Russian people. Then it depends, obviously, on what happens afterward. But all elections have consequences. But the people who decide what the consequences are are the citizens of the country, in this case, the citizens…

We are very proud of you.

Let me say--as you know, I have to leave--but the Justice Department will make whatever statements are appropriate there. I think it's inappropriate for me at this moment to say more. Thank you.

Well, first of all, that will be worked on in the context of resolving--making peace in the Middle East. That is a part of a comprehensive resolution to the Middle East peace process. That has always been our position. But first we had to…

The magnitude and the dimension of the problem in Colombia—perhaps the most pivotal country of all in terms of the world's cocaine trade—is extremely grave.

Absolutely not. It's not opening a door or closing a door, it should be--there is no significance to that in terms of this election process in Russia. This is something I do everywhere. When I go to other countries and I meet with the…

Well, I'm getting regular updates. Mr. Ross is--I think he is actually there now, and the Secretary of State will go as quickly as he finishes his talks with the Chinese Foreign Minister. And obviously, we have direct contacts with all the…

Well, I think that the parties have got to agree to a cease-fire. It's obvious that they're neighbors, and as we have seen in the terrible events of the last few days, once someone starts the spiral of violence, it's hard to stop. And…

Resources April 17, 1996 To the Congress of the United States: I transmit herewith the 1995 Annual Report on Alaska's Mineral Resources, as required by section 1011 of the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act (Public Law 96-487…

We're going to answer questions, you know, after our meeting; but we're working very hard on that and we've been at it for a couple of days now, and we're doing the best we can.

Well, we're doing a lot of work on that. I want to wait until I see President Kim and make a definitive announcement of any kind. But we are essentially continuing on the path of a charter back in 1993. We're working on ways to not only…

Of course. We've always been for all-party talks and all-party participation, that is, all of the parties that are committed to a peaceful democratic future in Northern Ireland.

He might have better ideas about that than I do. But the first thing, of course, is that there has to be an election law ratified in the Parliament. But I want to talk to him about it. We'll see what his ideas are.
