Other important legislation has been passed by the Senate in this Congress as well. We passed a drug control bill that significantly shifts resources to prevention and treatment to reduce the demand that fuels the drug trade. We passed a 5year farm bill which lays the basis for American agriculture in the next century. We approved the first major overhaul of immigration law in a quarter century. We set in place a significant costreducing restructuring of the way that tax dollars are spent on health care services. None of these legislative achievements. however. will mean much in the long term if we do not restore fiscal responsibility to our Government.
