I commend you, as did my colleague, for the eloquence and energy that you bring to this project. It is going to take a lot of that and we are going to need a lot of allies. I think you are absolutely right. Our problem with government is…

The Federal Government enjoys access to world capital markets that so far has been unlimited. We have been fortunate that foreign investors and central banks still have sufficient confidence in the strength of our Nation's economy to…
going to full secondary treatment will not have any positive environmental benefit. Instead, we will be spending, as I have said earlier, hundreds of millions of dollars of the citizens of the county and city of Los Angeles, local taxpayer…
reclaiming my time, may I say to the gentleman from New Jersey, we are not opening the door. The language is very specific. The hurdles are quite specific as to the outfalls 1 mile long, 150 feet deep, that must meet all applicable State…
When the gentleman says ``children,'' I do not know what he means by ``children.'' But I feel we are talking about 5 and 6 and these questions are generally asked of juniors and seniors in high school.
I rise on behalf of H.R. 1271, the Family Privacy Protection Act of 1995. Safeguarding the privacy rights of minors and their families is an essential part of the Contract With America. Both our Subcommittee on Government Management…
I wanted to clarify that this legislation only applies to federally funded in whole or in part surveys, questionnaires, interview instruments. Most of those were not that. It is possible that the Federal might fund something like that. I…
The gentleman is drawing an analogy with some of the civil rights laws, and my interpretation would be that this bill does not work that way. If the question is who funded the questionnaire, if the Federal Government funded the…
Let me refer the distinguished gentleman to the report on page 11 where it notes about halfway down the page that each of the four exceptions, and the second one, there is the same one the gentleman has stated that is in the proposed law…
we will no doubt hear a great deal of criticism of this rescissions package as cutting too much, too fast, or that vital programs are being cut unfairly. I can understand that feeling. All of us have had to have a little bit trimmed on…
I would be prepared to offer at this time, if it were appropriate, an amendment relating to saving the summer youth program. Unfortunately, some of the items have been precluded by the rules of the House that are being applied to a…
whenever a measure that affects a broad spectrum of America comes before the House, our offices are inundated with calls, letters, and telegrams. The proposed budget cuts to the Corporation for Public Broadcasting [CPB], National Public…
this issue gets down to several basic things, and I do not think there is one in this Chamber that disagrees that violence in any form anywhere should not be tolerated. We do not want to tolerate it; we want to deal with it. In this…
a few weeks ago America listened during the State of the Union Address as President Clinton stated his support for campaign finance reform. He said to Congress that ``We have a lot more to do before people really trust the way things work…
Mr. Chairman, today, I rise to offer an amendment to H.R. 668, the Criminal Alien Deportation Act. Bipartisan cosponsors include Mr. Beilenson, Mr. Bilbray, Mr. Condit, Mr. Gallegly, Mr. Knollenberg, Mr. Moorhead, Mr. Skelton, Mrs…
when Democrats controlled this Chamber and Republicans were in the White House, the budgets submitted by Republican Presidents were always considered DOA, dead on arrival. Well, we Republicans who are now in the majority will not follow…
for decades now Congress has treated the American taxpayer as an unlimited source for revenue. Congress has spent millions and ultimately billions of dollars on programs and policies which have limited our freedom and imperiled the dignity…
This bill suggests that an integrated approach to border management is needed. This legislation includes the improvement of drug interdiction, controlling illegal immigration and stopping other illegal cross-border activities in California…
The problem is there is too much money floating around in American politics at $10,000 an election cycle per political action committee, PAC's. That is what we have to deal with. The fact that you can hold parties at the Republican Club…
