WHCA FORM 15, OCTOBER 15, 1980
THE WHITE HOUSE
Office of the Press Secretary
For Immediate Release
October 5, 1990
STATEMENT BY THE PRESIDENT
The hour of reckoning is at hand. At midnight tonight, the
Congress of the United States must face up to the shutdown of
government services and resulting confusion that will be strewn
across this land because we could not produce a budget. It is
deeply discouraging that the governing bodies of this country
would wrangle with the nation's fiscal affairs for nearly a year
and fail.
Tonight, because there is no budget, the United States Government
under existing law does not have the authority to continue
operations. And I will not be a party to the process that would
once again put off meeting this responsibility for a few more
days. I will not sign the Continuing Resolution, passed by the
House and Senate tonight, which simply delays once again the most
serious constitutional responsibility of government -- to manage
the people's money.
At midnight tonight, our national parks and monuments will close.
Cleanup at hazardous waste sites will cease. Social Security
offices will accept no new applications. Border inspections will
be delayed. In one government agency after another, thousands of
Federal employees will no longer be able to serve public tasks
necessary for the public good. The people of America did not
send their representatives to Washington to produce these
consequences.
As I said in my Inaugural Address, they did not send us here to
bicker. And tonight, I challenge the Congress to act as quickly
as possible to produce an acceptable budget. Don't wait for
people to lose confidence in their government. Act now,
tomorrow, as soon as possible to produce a budget that reduces
the deficit, avoids recession, and puts our economy on the path
of sustained growth.
I stand ready to work with the members of Congress to produce a
responsible plan. After months of hard work, we produced a
budget agreement that would have cut a real $500 billion off our
deficit over the next five years. The White House, and the
Congressional leadership of the Democratic and Republican
parties, worked hard to put together that agreement and put in
place the largest deficit reduction in history. It's a sad
commentary that the full House did not have the courage of those
convictions. But surely the reality of a government closedown
will convince everyone that a solution must be found. It is time
to act responsibly on this problem and produce a Fiscal Year 1991
budget.

MEETING WITH ANDEAN AMBASSADORS
TO TRANSMIT ANDEAN TRADE PREFERENCE INITIATIVE
DATE: October 5, 1990
LOCATION: Roosevelt Room
TIME: 1:45 - 1:55 PM
FROM: BRENT SCOWCROFT
B
I. PURPOSE
To demonstrate your continuing interest in Latin America,
and the economic aspects of the Cartagena Summit.
II. BACKGROUND
Legislation proposing CBI-like treatment for the Andean
countries is ready to send to the Congress. Your
participation in this brief ceremony transmitting the
legislation to Congress follows up on your commitment to the
Andean countries, demonstrates your continued interest in
Latin America, and gives you an excellent opportunity to
encourage passage of the Enterprise for the Americas
legislation sent up on September 14. It also fulfills your
September 29 promise to President Gaviria of Colombia that
you would present the legislation this week. In addition to
Secretary Yeutter, Deputy USTR Katz and Under Secretary
Kimmitt, the Ambassadors/DCMs from Colombia, Ecuador, Peru,
and Bolivia have been invited.
III. PARTICIPANTS
See list at Tab B.
IV. PRESS PLAN
Full press coverage.
V. SEQUENCE
Brief remarks, then you will invite the Ambassadors/Charges
of the Andean countries to stand beside you while you sign
the transmittal document. Souvenir pens will be given to
the Andean Ambassadors.

POINTS TO BE MADE FOR TRANSMITTAL OF
ANDEAN TRADE PREFERENCE INITIATIVE
Recognize:
Secretary Yeutter
Under Secretary Kimmitt
Deputy U.S. Trade Representative Katz
Ambassador Victor Mosquera of Colombia
Ambassador Jorge Crespo of Bolivia
Chargé Jorge Valdez of Peru
Minister Patricio Zuquilanda of Ecuador
This legislation follows through on my Cartagena Summit
commitment to offer special measures of assistance to the
Andean countries. It provides trade preferences patterned
along the lines of the extremely successful Caribbean Basin
Initiative (CBI) legislation.
--
It is the second piece of legislation affecting our
hemisphere that we are sending to Congress in a month. As
you will recall, on September 14, I sent to the Congress the
Enterprise for the Americas Act of 1990. We are working
hard for passage of that legislation this session. I know
Secretary Brady and Under Secretary Mulford have been
working very hard on that, and I would like to see the
Congress act favorably this session.
--
The idea behind this legislation is to give the countries an
extra "boost;" it is designed to complement our proposals
on trade, investment, and debt under the Enterprise for the
Americas initiative, by providing a special 10-year access
to the U.S. market.
When this legislation comes into force, along with the
Enterprise Legislation, our arsenal against drugs will
expand to include the following: economic development
2
assistance, police and military measures for assistance,
investment and debt measures, and finally trade preferences.
--
And now, I would like to invite the four distinguished
Ambassadors and DCMs to join me here while I sign this.
(following signing, hand each of them a souvenir pen) .
