Whether you won a gold, silver, bronze, or simply gave your best, I believe that you all are winners in the eyes of your countrymen.

S. 3031 would weaken the HOME program by: Substituting the graduated match in current law with a flat 25 percent match for all forms of HOME assistance.

You know what it means to make America a winner, but think what it must mean to be the first athlete to bring a medal home to Latvia or Croatia.

We agreed, too, that the world must act to bring to an end this humanitarian nightmare that now exists in what was Yugoslavia.
