On the recordMarch 15, 1994
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. That is the Republican response to the President's tirade yesterday. Republicans want to work with the President to help this country. We want strong anticrime legislation. It is the liberal Democrats who say no. We want welfare reform. Again, the Democrats say no. We want workable health care reform. The Democrats say no. We want a middle-class tax cut. The Democrats, no. We want hearings on Whitewater. The Democrats say no. We want to pass the balanced budget amendment. Once again it is the Democrats who say no way. Mr. Speaker, the President is way off base, and he knows it. Republicans say yes, yes, yes. The Democrats say no, no, no.
