To help people get everything they can get in terms of their own livelihoods, their own ambitions----

The Public Record
I just want, for purposes of emphasis, to ask my colleague from New Jersey to read that total again, assuming the savings with a 2-percent reduction in interest rates. This is for an average family owning a home with a 30-year fixed…
They defeated the Baltimore Orioles. Mr. Speaker, there are some denizens of this area. Indeed, as we look at the Speaker pro tempore, Mr. Gilchrest, tonight and realize that he hails from the great State of Maryland, that may be something…
Mr. Speaker, I heard time and again from residents of the Sixth District of Arizona how pleased they were that Congress is getting down to business and working to enact a balanced budget. As our colleague from New Jersey pointed out, the…
I hear from people of various political persuasions... there is an insistence, not born of greed but of genuine compassion and old-fashioned Yankee ingenuity, that people want to hang on to more of their money to save, spend and invest as…
I talked to one of my most important constituents, indeed, my most important constituent, my wife Mary. Ms. Mary's first question was this: ``How do we pay for all these programs?'' Will this lead to a greater deficit? And that is a…
Every dime appropriated at the Federal level should go to help teachers teach and help children learn. That is our challenge, that is our mission, and that is one of the things I will work on in this 105th Congress.
If we fail to balance the budget, that generation of taxpayers would have to surrender in excess of 80 percent of their incomes.
I stand in this well today simply to take note of the fact... the Committee on Veterans' Affairs serves as an example of what is possible when Members agree to rather commonsense, broad precepts such as a cost-of-living adjustment for…
$200 is a lot of money to hard-working families in the United States of America, and for people to have the opportunity to buy a home for the first time this amendment would empower those people.
I would suggest, echoing the comments of my good friend from Pennsylvania, when we think about the fact that this amendment would save the average FHA homeowner about $200 in savings on an annual basis and, while we are here talking about…
I listened with great astonishment as once again rhetoric replaces reality. We should strive for a genuine balance of the environment and legitimate economic enterprises. It is well documented that a fire corridor exists from Idaho to…
It is a competition in a free society of conflicting philosophies, and when the day comes when one side continues to deliberately distort the truth, then, as in the eloquent words of Robert J. Samuelson last summer in the Washington Post…
Would that he only would help us put this Nation on a fiscal diet to help straighten out the priorities with tax reform for the middle class which he promised and then backed away from; with welfare reform, as the claim was to end welfare…
I guess this is something that will be printed up in the not too distant future and be available in Pueblo, CO, from the consumer folks there: The painless Clinton diet. Not ``I feel your pain,'' but ``I can miscompute your calories.''…
You know, I really do appreciate this new insightful diet plan offered by the administration, and let me pause here to actually give the President some credit because in terms of his diet and exercise regimen in the real world he has done…
I see the Walker amendment as providing a common sense approach to some badly needed funds in some areas of great concern. First and foremost, as the representative of the Sixth District of Arizona, I am acutely aware of the solemn and…
We are confronted by profound problems. The test for us is not posturing for an election in November but moving to solve these problems. So once again, despite the challenges of some deliberate disinformation, we call on our colleagues…
You know, we tell Boris Yeltsin, get rid of centralized command bureaucracies, go to the marketplace. Okay, what do you think the Health Care Financing Administration is? It is a centralized command bureaucracy. It is everything we are…
Well, it bring to mind really the definition of politics, I suppose, here in the late 20th century, at least as practiced by our campaigner in chief. I would have to say it is politics at its most cynical, the mission being, accept credit…
It is just interesting, because in other States, I could be corrected by my friend from California, that is very interesting. Legal services wanted to step in for illegal immigrants. Illegal aliens here in this country without a passport…
Actually, all told, Government spending at all levels in the so-called war on poverty is now in excess of our national debt, $5 trillion.
I think the observation to make to the good people of New Jersey is the gentleman from New Jersey, who fails to understand that, it is not so much that he is a product of New Jersey's system of education as much as he has adopted the old…
I believe those watching this debate tonight in the United States of America need to take a very clear-eyed, sober-minded approach to providing for our common defense and to understand that we are vulnerable to intercontinental ballistic…
Again, it begs the question, with all due respect, if it is good enough for the nation of Israel, is it not good enough, should we not be prudent enough to provide the same sort of missile defense for the people of the United States of…
