On the recordOctober 30, 1997
There is no Alaska project that was eliminated by the President. Second, the difficulty that I really have with what the Senator has said is the line-item veto was intended to eliminate waste or projects that would lead to a deficit. We asked for the list. Can the Senator now tell me what 18 or 19 projects the President made a mistake on? Can he give us a list? We never got a list. We have 36 to 38 projects in this bill--because we never got a list from the White House as to what projects the President admitted were erroneously line-item vetoed.
