On the recordFebruary 7, 1995
the President's budget is a microcosm of his entire administration: too little, too late. Sure, he has some spending cuts. But those cuts are not enough to satisfy the American people, or get the job done. He may have sprinkled in a few tax cuts, but they are far too late for the middle class. Mr. Speaker, the President's budget may not be dead on arrival, but it is on a respirator. Republicans will take up many of the President's cuts, while adding billions more. And we will look carefully at his other proposals. But clearly, the President has not gotten the message of the last election. We need a fundamental change in the Federal Government, not just tinkering around the edges. With his budget, the President has offered only a modified status quo. For many of us that simply is not good enough.
