Brandon Williams: “I think the gentlewoman from Connecticut. Perhaps an uninterested observer listening to the debate today, Mr. Speaker…”

On the recordJanuary 4, 1995
I think the gentlewoman from Connecticut. Perhaps an uninterested observer listening to the debate today, Mr. Speaker, might be uninformed enough to have found a little hypocrisy on both sides, and maybe listening to the debate on this issue, an uninformed observer might not understand that as stronger reform bill than the piece now being offered came before this body written by Democrats just a few months ago, and was eventually blocked by Republicans. I would not say that the action today is hypocritical, but an uninformed observer might.
