On the recordMarch 5, 1996
over the last year the American people watched the actions of this body very closely. And they learned many things. One thing learned is how very differently the two parties think about the great issues that face them. They see that Republicans fight for tax cuts and a smaller government. They also see that liberal Democrats fight for more government and higher taxes. During the budget negotiations, the American people saw for themselves very clearly that liberals, including the President, will go to bat for government programs, but not for the average taxpayer and worker. Mr. Speaker, the American people's desire for government reform has not subsided. That is something that is not going away overnight. Big government advocates are on the wrong side of history. America's future depends on less government and less taxation. And that is something that is obvious to all Americans.
