                  THE COSTLY CLINTON HEALTH CARE PLAN

  (Mr. EWING asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. EWING. Mr. Speaker, the President's health care plan would result 
in massive new bureaucracy and regulation of the economy.
  Do not just take my word for it. I invite my colleagues to read a 
report titled, ``The Regulatory Requirements of the Health Security 
Act,'' prepared by Multinational Business Services, Inc. Among the 
findings of this report are the following:
  The Clinton plan will require 98,146 new Federal, State, and health 
care alliance bureaucrats.
  The Clinton plan will require 59 new offices to support these 
bureaucrats.
  The Clinton plan contains 818 new regulatory mandates on the Federal 
and State governments.
  The Code of Federal Regulations would grow by about 2,891 pages.
  Staffing expenditures alone would cost Federal, States, and health 
alliances more than $3.9 billion each year.
  If the American people think the Government is too bloated and 
regulates too much now, we ought to be highly alarmed by the Clinton 
health care plan.
