On the recordMarch 25, 1998
I want to say again, I thank both my colleagues for doing this special order tonight because I think this is a very important issue. Our constituents do care about it. It is a tragedy that we are not going to be allowed to actually vote on true campaign finance reform at the end of this week, because people are crying out for it. And I see people voting less and less, the percentages of people that vote, and that cynicism really bothers me. This is my tenth year in the House, and I can see less people interested, less people coming to the polls, less people participating in every way; and that is the real tragedy that we have to turn around.
