Statement on Signing the 13th Continuing Resolution

April 24, 1996

Today I have signed into law H.J. Res. 175, the Thirteenth
Continuing Resolution for fiscal year 1996.
House Joint Resolution 175 provides for a temporary extension of
appropriations--through April 25--for activities covered by

the five fiscal year 1996 appropriations bills that have not been
enacted into law.
It is my hope that this very brief extension will enable the
Congress to complete acceptable legislation to fund these activities for
the remainder of the fiscal year.
When the fiscal 1996 process is complete, we should resume our
efforts to achieve a balanced budget. A balanced budget that is
consistent with our Nation's values should be our ultimate goal. I am
determined to continue working toward that goal.
William J. Clinton
The White House,
April 24, 1996.
