You deserve fair wages, America deserves a system that attracts the best in the land.
Our government works because it is made up of people who try to make their lives count.
This new aid brings to $108.4 million the total of U.S. food/commodity assistance.
It is intended that the food aid will support long-term reform of the Polish agricultural system by providing much needed commodities during a transitional period toward a market economy.
I am pleased to announce today that the United States will offer to provide additional food and commodity aid to the Polish people.
I am determined to do everything in my power to assist and to help keep black colleges strong.
I'm delighted that you all could be with us, particularly these two Secretaries and our distinguished Members of Congress.
