The amendment extends for five years those provisions which permit the transfer of nonnuclear parts, source, by-product special nuclear material and other material for nuclear weapons.

It would be a mistake for the people of our country to have aroused within them hatred toward anyone; not against the people of Iran, and certainly not against Iranians who may be in our country as our guests.

This is the latest in a series of important steps my administration has taken to ensure that dairy farmers have the economic incentive they need to produce ample supplies of milk and thereby reduce inflationary pressure.

We hold the Government of Iran fully responsible for the well-being and the safe return of every single person.

I have no regrets about it nor apologies to make, because it did help to save a man's life, and it was compatible with the principles of our country.

I urge the Congress give it favorable consideration.

This Nation will never yield to blackmail.

I have concluded that it is in our security interest to continue to assist them in maintaining a credible nuclear force.

The harming of innocent people is condemned by every law of mankind and by every law of God.

We are determined to work as peacefully as possible to achieve the release of our hostages as early as we possibly can.

I have today signed H.R. 4167, which will support milk prices at between 80 and 90 percent of parity for the next 2 years.
