Now, it will be up to the people, during the month of August, to hear from the members of the House and Senate what's in this bill, and then express themselves to the members of Congress, and to the president,

Al Gore is for the McCain-Feingold bill. In fact, he said it will be the first bill that he sends to the new Congress if he's president. George Bush is really not very enthusiastic about it at all. I'm not sure it would be his tenth bill sent to Congress.

Richard Gephardt (1941-)

Saxby Chambliss

You may disagree with some changes in this bill, just as some of our members disagree with other details, ... But all Americans will see this bill as a victory for common sense, and I urge you to support it.
