On the recordFebruary 10, 2000
The truth is we need to fix it now. We are meeting the important financial goals for the future of the country that we have not met in a long time: balance the budget for the first time in almost 30 years; we are restoring integrity to the Social Security trust fund by not spending that trust fund for the first time in four decades; we are paying down debt in ways that we have not before. Now, not later, is the time to look for the unfairness in the Tax Code and begin the hard work of eliminating that unfairness.
