   REPORT OF PROPOSED LEGISLATION TO INCREASE THE PUBLIC DEBT LIMIT--
                   MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT--PM 95

  The PRESIDING OFFICER laid before the Senate the following message 
from the President of the United States, together with an accompanying 
report; which was referred to the Committee on Finance.

To The Congress of the United States:
  In disapproving H.R. 2586, a bill that would have, among other 
things, provided for a temporary increase in the public debt, I stated 
my desire to approve promptly a simple increase in the debt limit. 
Accordingly, I am forwarding the enclosed legislation that would 
provide for such an increase.
  I urge the Congress to act on this legislation promptly and to return 
it to me for signing.
                                                  William J. Clinton.  
  The White House, November 13, 1995.
