NAN A. S. HAYWORTH: “That is written across the forum in the National Achieves, and it is true. The fact is, and this is absolutely germane…”

On the recordJuly 10, 1995
That is written across the forum in the National Achieves, and it is true. The fact is, and this is absolutely germane, not since 1923 has the majority party enjoyed less than 60 percent of the seats on the Committee on Ways and Means. Mr. Speaker, with the addition of the gentleman from Texas [Mr. Laughlin] we are at 59 percent. To my friends on the other side of the aisle, Mr. Speaker, it is absolutely germane to realize this fact. There is a new majority exercising the will of the American people. Get over it. Help us govern.
