J.C. Watts, Jr. Just last week, the U.S. House passed monumental legislation based on a simple idea - the idea that once the government pays its bills and has money left over, it should be returned to those who paid it: you the taxpayer. But the bill, the Financial Freedom Act, has a long way to go, and the President has threatened to veto it. This is why he shouldn't. In the fist two years of his term (1993-1994), president Clinton projected pro-jected a budget deficit for 1998 of $235.4 billion. Yet, in 1995 under Republican leadership, we established estab-lished spending caps and fiscal responsibility, trimmed excessive governmental spending, and applied common sense to how America's tax dollars should be spent. Just recently, we celebrated the first true balanced budget, the fruits of. the labors we began in 1995. This year's balanced budget bill is the first in decades that doesn't use Social Security funds to avoid a budget deficit Today, the Congressional Budget Office is projecting pro-jecting a $2.9 trillion surplus over the next 10 years. Two years into his first term, president pres-ident Clinton and Democrat-controlled Congress raided the Social Security Trust Fund and took $57 billion to pay for budget deficits and more big government spending. Today, the White House has agreed to accept the Republican "lock box" initiative to protect every penny of Social Security from Washington's big spenders. Two years into his first term. Bill Clinton and a Democrat-controlled Congress passed the biggest tax increase in history. In October 1995, the President told a group in Houston, "Probably there are people in this room still mad at me about that budget because you think I raised your taxes to much. It might surprise you that I think I raised them too much to." Yet, how does he feel now?

Friday: I a.m. Buffalo, NY, the President said, "We have no permanent deficit anymore, any-more, the natural condition is a surplus, sur-plus, okay - so the question is, what do we do with it? We could give it all back to you and hope you spend it right." Not only would he rather keep the money in Washington, but he doesn't even trust you with your own money. I believe otherwise. Families receiving a tax refund can either save more or spend it on needed school clothes for their kids, a new washer or dryer, or for what they decide will secure their future. And, when Americans keep more of their hard-earned money, the economy grows. The President began this year offering no tax relief to the American people, saying the Republican tax relief proposal was 'extreme' and 'irresponsible.' Recently, he has modified his position, posi-tion, supporting $250 billion in tax cuts, and now saying he would support sup-port $300 billion. The President has said many times that tax cuts would even stand in the way of needed domestic spending and Medicare. Couwtry Lawe Academy Preschool 2315 East 500 North "Instilliaa i Lova .1 1.

And then, there's the public debt of all those years that ran budget deficits. Once again, the President's rhetoric is short on facts. Because of a strong economy and our commitment commit-ment to a balanced budget. Republican-led fights in Congress have already erased $51 billion of debt in 1998, and another $102 billion bil-lion this year alone. In fact, with the Republican Social Security lockbox in place, we will pay down $2 trillion tril-lion of debt over the next 10 years. The fact is. Speaker Dennis Hastert and Congressional Republicans have put forth a common com-mon sense agenda- locking away, retirement security, returning education edu-cation dollars back home, providing meaningful tax relief, and rebuilding rebuild-ing our national security - all to secure America's future. So, remind the President: It's your money, not Washington's, you overpaid Uncle Sam, you deserve it back, and the President should never lose sieht of that fact and toots 21 Y t UilMt ., a 111 ia idti I I |
