Excerpt from Nomination of Leon E. Panetta: Hearing Before the Committee on Governmental Affairs United States, Senate One Hundred Third Congress, First Session on Nomination of Leon E. Panetta to Be Director, Office of Management and Budget, January 11, 1993 The Committee met, pursuant to notice, at 9:36 a.m., in room SH-216, Hart Senate Office Building, Hon. John Glenn, Chairman of the Committee, presiding. Present: Senators Glenn, Levin, Sasser, Lieberman, Dorgan, Roth, Cohen, and Cochran. Also Present: Senator Domenici. Staff Present: Doris Clanton, Mark Goldstein, David Plocher, Jane McFarland, Lorraine Lewis, Paul Ellis, Deborah Cohen (Senator Glenn), Susanne Marshall, Jeff Steger, and John Mercer (Senator Roth). OPENING STATEMENT OF SENATOR GLENN Chairman Glenn. The hearing will be in order. Good morning. Today the Committee on Governmental Affairs meets to consider the nomination of Leon Panetta to be Director of the Office of Management and Budget. As most of us here know, Mr. Panetta has distinguished himself in his 16 years as a Congressman from California´s 16th District. He has served on the House Budget Committee since 1979 and has been its Chairman since 1988. His work on the Budget Committee in particular has earned him the respect of his colleagues and provided him a depth of knowledge that will be critical to President-elect Clinton in the years ahead. That Mr. Panetta, knowing so much about the details of the budget and the government, still agreed to be nominated for OMB may be admirable, but may be just a little bit crazy because Leon, in his years helping to negotiate a budget through the Congress and in the give and take over budgets between Congress and the White House, has seen firsthand how tough it is to be OMB Director. I have said frequently that I believe the job of OMB Director is, after the President, the second most powerful job in the executive branch of government, and Mr. Panetta will have a leading role in shaping national policy. As OMB Director, Mr. Panetta will recommend where every dollar of our $1.5 trillion budget is spent and will have a say in how each of the government´s hundreds of programs are managed.
