For Immediate Release
Office of the Press Secretary
January 20, 2004
Statement by the President
Today, a minority in the Senate denied a vote on a spending bill
that is four months overdue, and that fulfills important commitments:
commitments to veterans who need health care; to Africans suffering
from AIDS; to FBI agents fighting terror; to children learning to read
in our Nation's public schools. This bill stays within the spending
limits I proposed. And the Senate needs to pass it.
