I take this occasion once again to urge prompt and final action on the Trade Reform Act.

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

I firmly believe that our current fiscal situation demands national unanimity on the issues of a larger concern.
