Jack Kingston: “Let me just say, I appreciate the gentleman from Pennsylvania and the gentleman from Michigan for letting me join them…”

On the recordMarch 18, 1997
Let me just say, I appreciate the gentleman from Pennsylvania and the gentleman from Michigan for letting me join them this evening, and I do agree with the title of the gentleman from Michigan's newsletter. We have two missions here, one of a command-control bureaucratic government where Washington experts tell the whole world how to run their lives, how to run education, and how to run their businesses and families and so forth, or we have a government that is smaller and based on common sense. The gentleman has an excellent newsletter, and if the gentleman would, could we get his Net page number and so forth.
