AND SUPPORTING A BALANCED FEDERAL BUDGET.
WHEREAS, the federal budget deficit has increased to almost $200 billion
per year and is projected to be $500 billion within a few years; and
WHEREAS, federal deficit spending and competition with private enterprise
for existing money supplies tend to increase interest rates, causing numerous
hardships on millions of Americans; and
WHEREAS, every woman, man and child in the United States today are
burdened with this massive federal debt and will continue to be unless action
is taken to reduce it; and
WHEREAS, on May 24, 1984, 48.4 percent of the members of the House of
Representatives voting were concerned enough about the federal debt to vote
against increasing the federal debt limit; and
WHEREAS, the great majority of United States citizens, numbering in the
millions, opposes federal deficit spending.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of
Cypress, California, strongly supports and urges the President and the
Congress to decrease the federal debt by sensible reduction in the annual
federal budget; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Cypress,
California, urges Congress and the President to begin efforts to balance the
federal budget with the goal of retiring the federal debt; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the middle class working women and men not be
the ones to make all the sacrifices to balance the budget but that all
segments of America, such as industry and commerce, share in the effort to
achieve this goal; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that copies of this Resolution be sent to the
President of the United States, both United States Senators from California,
all members of the House of Representative representing the City of Cypress,
California, and all other Congressmen representing Orange County.
