On the recordSeptember 30, 1998
Somehow there is this belief here in Washington that you can save Social Security, but you can't give tax relief. Well, I, like Senator Grams, believe we must and can do both, not only to keep the economy moving and growing, but also to recognize the importance that we have a surplus, thanks to our diligence over the last decade, and now we can use it to strengthen and reform Social Security, and we probably have the opportunity of a generation to do that. I hope that the Congress can and will do both.
