ON THE ISSUES

* ENVIRONMENT

“It’s an area where federal investment money is well spent. I have

opposed a good deal of spending in Washington, but I have strongly

supported the record increases in funding for environmental protection in

the last four years. It’s meant cleaner air and cleaner water for us in

Southern California.”

* REGULATING THE INTERNET

“The Internet provides an extraordinary challenge to the regulatory

bureaucracy. If the government takes the view that it can define and

regulate the Internet, it is bound not only to fail -- but also to do

irreparable damage to the Internet’s continued growth in the process.”

-- Feb. 29, speech before the Hoover Institution

* FEDERAL INCOME TAX REFORM

“We will move [Bush’s] tax program within the first year. That will

then set the stage for even more fundamental tax reforms. We’ll be back

on track.”
