Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from President Clinton's Fiscal Year 1996 Budget: Hearings Before the Committee on the Budget, House of Representatives, One Hundred Fourth Congress, First Session; Hearings Held in Washington, DC, February 7, 9, and 10, 1995; Serial No. 104-4
In conclusion, Mr. Chairman, we stand ready to work with this committee in a dialogue on the budget. We want to work with the committee not only on the things that are proposed in this budget, but on things that aren't. We did not include welfare reform in this budget. But everybody knows we are for welfare reform.
We had a welfare reform bill up last year and are engaged in ac tive discussions with the Congress on reaching the objectives of welfare reform, which I think are common ones. We want a welfare system which emphasizes getting people to work and focuses on welfare as a transition, not as a way of life.
In the area of health care reform, we had a proposal last year that generated a great deal of dialogue. However, it did not come to fruition. We want very much, as the President emphasized in his State of the Union Address, to work with the Congress on health care reform, which is, as Mr. Sabo emphasized, key to further progress on the deficit.
