Richard Nixon: “Arrests of drug traffickers and pushers are rising, while drug-related crimes in our major cities have begun to decline.”

I have always tried to do what was best for the Nation.

I am firmly convinced that the record, in its entirety, does not justify the extreme step of impeachment and removal of a President.

Two weeks ago, I vowed to the American people that any appropriations bill substantially above my budget for fiscal year 1975 would be vetoed.

I have done my very best in all the days since to be true to that pledge.
