On the recordApril 25, 1996
today is Take Your Daughter to Work Day. Being a position role model and raising a child's self- esteem are noble objectives. However, for too many of those who represent our weakest links in our society, there is no father in the house to bring a child to work, and the mother, she gets a quasi- minimum wage increase by simply having another baby. Once upon a time there was a candidate for President who said he would end welfare as we know it. Since that slogan apparently helped Mr. Clinton get elected in 1992, I guess the 1996 slogan will be ``Really, folks, some day I want to end welfare as we know it.'' The record would show that Mr. Clinton took 2 years to even introduce an outline of a bill, and he has vetoed welfare reform twice. Truly the only missing ingredient between taking the first step toward welfare reform and the continuation of this vicious cycle of government dependency is President Bill Clinton.
