Jack Kingston: “reclaiming my time, absolutely, because the 103d Congress, as the gentlewoman remembers, was majority Democrat, as was…”

On the recordJuly 16, 1996
reclaiming my time, absolutely, because the 103d Congress, as the gentlewoman remembers, was majority Democrat, as was the Senate in the 103d Congress; and had the Democrat leadership wanted to pass the Accountability Act in the 103d Congress, it was simply a matter of Democrats working together. Now, to get back to the gentlewoman's point, it is interesting now we have a Republican House and Republican Senate and a Democrat White House and we did pass it, so bipartisanship does work.
