H.R. 3064 - DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA
APPROPRIATIONS BILL, FY 2000
(Sponsor: Istook (R), Oklahoma)
| |
This Statement of Administration Policy provides the Administration's views
on a revised version of the District of Columbia Appropriations Bill, FY
2000. The President vetoed H.R. 2587, the "District of Columbia
Appropriations Act, 2000," because it contained numerous provisions that
prevent local residents from making their own decisions about local
matters, as they should under home rule. The new bill makes virtually no
significant improvements from the vetoed bill. Thus, the President's
senior advisors would recommend that he veto this revised bill if it were
presented to him in its current form. We stand ready to work with the
Congress to pass a bipartisan bill that the President can support, one that
is consistent with home rule.
