On the recordSeptember 4, 1997
It would be a tragedy to have the soldier miss the birth of his child, but how many people are speaking out for children being born addicted all over America? And I want to agree 100 percent: The Army does not need this, the Army did not ask for this, the Army does not want it, the Army does not deserve it. But the Army does not govern. The American people want it, the American people need it, the American people deserve it, and the American people, by God, are the ones that we are sent here to represent. This is a civilian government, and when the Army tells us what they want and what they need, then we should pack our bags and get out. Mr. Speaker, I reserve the balance of my time.
