THE WHITE HOUSE
office of the Press Secretary
For Immediate Release
November 22, 2000
PRESS BRIEFING BY
JAKE SIEWERT
The James S. Brady Press Briefing Room
11:25 A.M. EST
MR. SIEWERT: Quick announcements, and then we'll go -- we'll
try to make this quick, so everyone can go home and enjoy the holiday.
The President will be sending a delegation to the inauguration
of Vincente Fox in Mexico, headed by Secretary of State Madeleine
Albright and including Senior white House Representative Maria
Echaveste, the Deputy Chief of Staff. He will not, himself, be
attending that, although be sending the highest level delegation
possible.
And the President this morning signed the District of columbia
appropriations bill for fiscal year 2001. He was pleased that we were
able to work out a good-faith compromise on this, under the leadership
of Representative Eleanor Holmes Norton. That bill will provide roughly
$446 million in federal funds that are central for District courts,
correction facilities and the rest. It also provides $17 million to
fully fund the D.C. college Access Act. That's something the President
has championed that provides tuition assistance for District residents,
a bill that the President signed into law last year. It also fully
funds the New York Avenue Metro Station, and provides a strong start for
brownfields work in Anacostia, and economic development there.
