Bill Clinton
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).
The Administrator shall be responsible for monitoring Federal agency compliance with the policies and recommendations of the Committee.
There is hereby established within the executive branch the Interagency Security Committee.
The Congress is about to take some votes that I believe will move this country in the wrong direction.
It isn't racist for a parent to pull his or her child close when walking through a high-crime neighborhood... it isn't racist for whites to assert that the culture of welfare dependency... cannot be broken by social programs unless there…
The truth is that African-Americans still make on average about 60 percent of what white people do... more than half of African-American children live in poverty.
White America must understand and acknowledge the roots of black pain... it is beyond wrong when law-abiding black parents have to tell their law-abiding children to fear the police.
Today we face a choice... the path of courage and wisdom, leads to unity, to reconciliation.
The rift we see before us... exists in spite of the remarkable progress black Americans have made.
My goal is to do this in such a way that the strengths of this community and the strengths of this great resource will generate even more employment and more stability for you at the end of this 5-year process.
We believe that if we do this right, we can generate even more employment in this area as we go through this transition period.
I hope that you have seen the commitment of the administration to try to maintain employment at appropriate levels.
The most important thing, I think, to announce today for the San Antonio community is that we have reached an agreement on joint use of the base.
Do you really want those thousands of kids out of the chance to be in the Head Start program?
We are committed to implementing that agreement on joint use in good faith.
I wonder what all of those other Presidents did and why they didn't do more with this incredibly flexible office.
This moment in which the racial divide is so clearly out in the open need not be a setback for us.
We can balance the budget without stepping on our values and trampling on our future and walking away from our obligations to one another.
