“I am pleased to say that in the balanced budget or in the budget resolution, 1995, the Committee on the Budget identified over $95 billion worth of unnecessary spending on corporations. Mr. Speaker, I am going to be releasing today a GAO report to the Committee on the Budget which will outline over 25 different projects that we could undertake to reduce corporate spending or Government spending, unnecessary Government spending, on corporations. It is time, as we face the 1997 budget cycle, to look to individual responsibility, but also corporate responsibility, and I commend the Committee on the Budget for taking the lead in this process.”
