“there are 37 members of the Committee on the Judiciary, about 8 percent of this Congress. That leaves 398 Members of the House that could be working on some other matters. Yet today, September 16, 2 weeks before the end of the Federal fiscal year, incredibly, there is no budget. Months late. Over 70 percent of the American public are in some kind of managed care plan, and yet this Congress has not passed a meaningful Patients' Bill of Rights to protect them. Russia is falling apart, the Asian economy is in the tank, South America is teetering, and every American who has a stock thrift plan has seen their retirement drop 15 to 20 percent in the last few weeks, and yet no congressional action. The Committee on the Judiciary's job may be to investigate whether something was done, but the American people should be looking at Congress and asking about what is not being done.”
