On the recordApril 23, 1996
I would just say that if the Yankees had such heavy hitters in their lineup as you have against the environment, they would win the World Series. The gentleman from Georgia, [Mr. Deal], who just spoke earlier in the well in favor of this legislation, in fact has a perfect record of voting 5 for 5 against the environment, against protecting children from arsenic in their drinking water and against adequate funding for our Nation's toxic waste cleanup to allow corporate polluters to dump 70,000 chemicals in our Nation's rivers and to allow industry to pollute our drinking water and to stop the EPA from protecting America from arsenic, dioxin, lead and other cancer-causing pollutants. So, again, a perfect score for Mr. Deal of Georgia against the environment. Once again, he has earned his fig leaf, but he will not be allowed to hide it when his real environmental record is exposed against the legislation today.
