          DEMOCRATIC ACCOMPLISHMENTS WILL WIN OUT IN NOVEMBER

  (Mr. RICHARDSON asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. RICHARDSON. Mr. Speaker, Republicans are crowing about 
Whitewater, the so-called troubles of health care, and one race in 
Kentucky. Jerry Falwell does not hesitate to make outrageous claims 
about the President of the United States to sell a video, and they are 
predicting great gains in November.
  But let us remember that this is May, and that the election is in 
November, and that come November the President and the Democratic 
Congress can make the following claims: That the economy is solid and 
improving; that the deficit is way down; that nine times more jobs per 
month have been created under this administration than the previous 
two; that there will be a Democratic crime bill of more cops, more 
prevention, and more police; that a Democratic President enacted NAFTA 
and the GATT agreement; that there will be Democratic initiatives on 
education, welfare reform, reemployment, and, yes, a health care bill.
  Mr. Speaker, no wonder the Republicans are talking about side issues.
