Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from S. 4 and S. 14, Line-Item Veto: Hearing Before the Committee on Governmental Affairs, United States Senate, One Hundred Fourth Congress, First Session, February 23, 1995 The Committee met, pursuant to notice, at 10:00 a.m., in room SD-342, Dirksen Senate Office Building, Hon. William V. Roth, Jr., Chairman of the Committee, presiding. Present: Senators Roth, Stevens, McCain, Glenn, Levin, Pryor. Lieberman, and Dorgan. Opening statement of chairman roth Chairman Roth. The Committee will please be in order. Today we will hear testimony on the line-item veto legislation. This legislation is embodied in two Senate bills with differing procedures. S. 4 would provide for enhanced rescission while S. 14 would set up a proceaure for expedited consideration of a proposed rescission. This is a very important issue that President Clinton has repeatedly endorsed. In fact, in our hearing on this issue last month, Dr. Alice Rivlin, Director of OMB, asked that the Congress provide the "strongest possible line-item veto power to the President." I agree with Dr. Rivlin´s statement. Congress should act to give the President the strongest possible version of the line-item veto powers. On February 6, 1995, the House of Representatives did just that. They passed H.R. 2 overwhelmingly with a bipartisan vote of 294 to 139. H.R. 2 is almost identical to S. 4 in the Senate. Both bills would provide for enhanced rescission powers. It was my intention to hold a markup this morning on both S. 4 and S. 14. However, the minority had requested an additional hearing on this matter. Accordingly, we arc meeting today for that purpose. It is my further intention to report both Dills out of the Governmental Affairs Committee without recommendation 1 week from today on March 2, 1995. This is what the Budget Committee did on February 14th. I understand that the Budget Committee will file their reports on both S. 4 and S. 14 tomorrow. So ample time will be available for review of those documents before our scheduled markup. Furthermore, both S. 4 and S. 14 as amended by the Budget Committee were available to our Committee members last Thursday, February 16th. A computer message was sent to all offices on February 16th, notifying each Senator of the availability of these bills as amended. A hearing was held last month on the line-item veto on January 12th by this Committee along with the House Committee on Government Reform and Oversight.
