On the recordMarch 28, 1996
how often do we get a clear shot at helping 25 million people? Twenty-five million. Today, we have that chance. We can help them stay healthy. We can help them end their fear. We can help them achieve their dreams. Unfortunately, however, some Members of this body do not want us to have a clear shot with a clean bill. They want to gum up the works with proposals we do not need, proposals that doom this entire bill. Why would they do this? Two words, Mr. Speaker: Special interests. Mr. Speaker, many Democrats agree, many Republicans agree, the President agrees. Do not gum up the works, do not support special interests over our interests. Twenty-five million people are waiting. Do not let them down. Vote against this rule.
