On the recordJanuary 24, 1995
this is no time to stall. For 40 years the House leadership on this side of the aisle stalled reform from Congress. For 40 years the House leadership resisted passing a balanced budget amendment. They refused to reform our welfare system. They passed unfunded mandates on to the States. And now there are those who are trying to put off reform again. That is why they use dilatory tactics to slow the legislative process. It is why they concentrate on issues that have nothing to do with changing this Congress. They wish to stall in order to deny the American people a real chance to change business as usual. Well, Mr. Speaker, if the last election was any indication, this is no time to stall. I urge my colleagues on the other side of the aisle to stop stalling and to start working with us to reform this Congress.
