On the recordJune 4, 1997
I think that probably confirms that Omaha, Nebraska is out the window for the site location, but I would say that perhaps there are places in Europe or places in other parts of the world that might welcome the United Nations. I am sure they feel the same way in Ocala, Florida, which is my home State, and other parts of central Florida. We do not want to see the United Nations certainly in New York City anymore. We would like to see it relocated, but more importantly, we would like to see the United Nations move in the direction corporations are doing today by downsizing; and like we see here in Congress and the Senate and the House, while we are downsizing and trying to make the government more efficient and less expensive, why not have the United Nations do the same thing? That is the gist of my amendment. I urge my colleagues to support it when we vote on it tomorrow, Mr. Chairman.
