Greg Ganske: “But still allowing 7.2 percent growth each year on the average. Remember when President Clinton and Mrs. Clinton…”

On the recordJanuary 4, 1996
But still allowing 7.2 percent growth each year on the average. Remember when President Clinton and Mrs. Clinton presented their plan just a year and a half ago, they proposed an increase of about 6.8 percent. At that time they said that was not a cut. But now when we have proposed spending more than they did, now, of course, this is a Draconian cut. We have got to get past this Washington language about cuts. It confuses people back in the district.
