On the recordApril 14, 1999
I come here to speak about the budget, but I cannot help but respond a little bit on campaign finance reform. The issue should be how do we make those in office live by the rules that are already on the books. I question whether more laws, more rules will make people any more honest. But we are here at a proud time, to think that we are going to pass the budget resolution on time today. I ask my colleagues on that side of the aisle, do not throw up roadblocks. Come along. Let us do the budget resolution as the law requires by the 15th. It has got some great things in it. It strengthens Social Security. It keeps the caps so that we keep our commitment to balance the budget. It provides money to help make Medicare more secure. Education will benefit under this budget resolution. I only see one dark cloud. Vote yes on the budget resolution. It is a good agreement.
