Clinton (1993, Book I)] [June 24, 1993] [Page 931] [From the U.S. Government Publishing Office www.gpo.gov][[Page 931]] Statement on Credit Availability June 24, 1993 Today's announcement by the FDIC is another tangible benefit brought on by the progress of our deficit reduction plan and the lower interest rates it has produced.
