The Republican majority wish to point to the lack of responsibility in our Federal Government. but is it responsible to have a larger Federal budget deficit in 1999 than under current law? No. it is not. Mr. Speaker. the first 100 days has been a blitzkrieg of cuts in education funding. summer jobs for teenagers. school lunches. denying legal and taxpaying immigrants assistance. The contract has several issues which I agreed with and supported: Putting Congress under the laws that it passes. line item veto and unfunded mandates. and all of these issues needed to be addressed. But the crown jewel will be paid for by cuts in safe schools and financial aid for the college students.
