PRESIDENT WILLIAM JEFFERSON CLINTON
POINTS FOR OPEN ARRIVAL IN ARKANSAS
LITTLE ROCK, ARKANSAS
January 17, 2001
•
Thank performers: Little Joe and the B.K.'s; Choir from Trumpet & Zion Church. Senator
Prvor, Congressmen Beryl Anthony, Mike Ross and Vic Snyder. State Rep. Carol
Whillacok.
•
I'm so proud of all the people from Arkansas who came to Washington with me and did a
world-class job. Secretary Slater, Secretary Gober; Mack McLarty, Bruce Lindsey,
Stephanie Streett, Bob Nash, Marsha Scott, Janis Kearney, Gloria Cabe and Meredith Cabe,
Jim French, Shannon Butler, Craig Smith and so many others. That's something every one
of you - and everyone in this state -- should be proud of for the rest of your lives.
•
Thank all of you who have supported me every campaign I've run: for Congress in
Arkansas' Third District, for Attorney General, Governor, and President.
•
For years now, we've worked together to build the economy and invest in our people and in
Arkansas' future. We knew something about how to do that back in 1992, when we led the
nation in job creation, with 90,000 new jobs over four years. When I went to Washington in
January 1993, we had the third-strongest economic performance in America.
•
I'm proud of how we've lifted America and Arkansas up over the last eig}Jt years. Today,
the unemployment rate here is 4.2 percent, down from 6. 7, with more than 200,000 new
Arkansas jobs over the last 8 years. Poverty is down, average income is up.
•
Across the nation, unemployment is at a 30-year low; we have 22.5 million new jobs, the
longest economic expansion in history, the lowest minority unemployment ever recorded, the
lowest female unemployment in 40 years. And we turned record budget deficits into record
surpluses and started paying down the national debt.
•
We said we would be fiscally responsible and invest in people, and we kept our word,
starting with education. Here in Arkansas, we've provided funds to hire hundreds of new
teachers, doubled funding for Head Start, and set aside more than $10 million to repair
school buildings here. And more than 90,000 Arkansas students are using our HOPE
Scholarship and Lifetime Learning tax credits to pay for college.
•
We created the Delta Regional Authority to promote economic development. We've driven
crime down and helped Arkansas hire more than 1200 new police officers. We've cleaned up
six toxic waste sites- twice as many as the previous two Administrations. And we've
invested in infrastructure: water projects and highways, airports and mass transportation.
�I
•
I'm going to keep investing in Arkansas- and I'm going to be spending a lot of time here:
we're building a library that will be a beautiful building that works for the people of
Arkansas. It will have a park for the people of Little Rock to enjoy; it will draw tourists and
visitors from all over the world; and with the University of Arkansas, it will have a public .
policy school offering a Master's Degree program and a chance for businesses to send people
there for a couple of months as an orientation into public service.
•
Through the library, and every other way I can, I want to keep working to empower people in
Arkansas, especially young people- and keep spreading the word that America's best days
are still out in front ofus. Thank you.

heather, this is a rack up of recent accomplishments in the area, you may want to add some of
this information
Delta Regional Authority (ORA) -The final Labor HHS Appropriations bill included
authorizing language to create a ORA. This is a significant and historic first step to
creating an entity that will have a long-term impact on the economic conditions of the
region. The FY2001 Energy and Water Appropriations Bill included $20 million for this
purpose.
Great River Bridge/1-69 - Of the $25 million requested for this bridge, $8 million was
provided in the Transportation bill.
Other Transportation Funding -·In addition to the $8 million for the Great River
Bridge, the final appropriation included $218 million for various highway and transit
projects, including a large number of unrequested projects: The project targeted to
receive the most funding was the US 82 bridge at Greenville ($1 00 million). In
Arkansas, $10 million is provide for the US 63 to Jonesboro highway project and $1.1
million is provided for the Little Rock Rivermarket/College Station livable communities
·
transit project.
USDA's Economic Development Programs - $6 million, the full request, was provided
for USDA programs to support rural businesses.
Little Rock Air Force Base- $25 million for a new C130J simulator at the Little Rock
Air Force Base as well as funding to upgrade other C130 simulators was included in the
Defense appropriations bill. Also, $8 million, as requested, was included for a C130
squadron operations/aircraft maintenance unit. The C130J is the next generation
model of the C130 airplane. This was a very high priority.
Other Military Construction funding- Full funding ($18 million) for a Quality
Evaluation Facility at Pine Bluff Arsenal is provided as requested in the budget. The
facility will replace an existing facility that is used to produce and distribute small batch
chemical and biological defense equipment. In addition, at the Little Rock Air Force
Base, the new $9.1 million fitness center included in the budget and a $2.75 million
child care facility was also funded.
�Water Projects- Funding was provided for all projects in Arkansas in your Budget:
Grand Prairie- $20.3 million, an increase of $6 million over FY 2000
Bayou Meto - $6.5 million as requested
L'Anguille River- $750,000 as requested
Eight Mile Creek- $2.1 million as requested
Bouef Tensas- $2.4 million as requested
Helena and vicinity - $2.45 million as requested
Red River Emergency Bank Protection - $4 million (not requested)
Interior projects- As requested, $300,000 for operations is provided for the Central
High School National Historic Site (a $225,000 increase over FY 2000). In addition, at
least $1.5 million is expected to be available for Central High School through the Save
America's Treasures program. Finally, an unrequested earmark of $3 million was
provided for the rehabilitation at the Hot Springs National Park.
Forrest City Prison Expansion - The Commerce, Justice, State appropriations bill
included $96 million, as requested, for the expansion of the Forest City Prison.
Nutrition and Agricultural Research - $5 million is provided for the Arkansas
Children's Hospital for nutrition research, an increase of $1 million over FY 2000, but $3'
million less than the request. As requested in the Budget, funding was also provided for
the Dale Bumpers Rice Research Center and the Stuttgart National Aquaculture
Research Center.
Veterans Affairs Hospital in Little Rock- Funding ($3.9 million) is to be provided to
complete construction of a research annex at the Little Rock Veterans Affairs Medical
Center. We are working with the department and the delegation, including Senator
Hutchinson, to try to ensure that after VA makes the announcement, Congress and the
incoming Secretary do not take subsequent action to repeal this funding.
·
Diane Blair Center- We were able to secure $2.5 million for the creation of this center
at the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville. It will establish academic and research
programs for the Study of Southern Politics and Society.
FEMA disaster assistance - We also provided additional federal assistance to deal with the
recent storms that were felt in this area and across the state.
Heather - I think this health stuff has changed, mayb~ just make a general remark
about additional resources to meet the health care needs in the state
Health Care - Medicaid Upper Payment Limit (UPL) - In December, OMS and DPC
worked with HHS to let the Arkansas state plan amendment for Medicaid UPL lapse
into approval, meaning that the State qualifies for the two-year grace period under the
proposed regulation. This provides about $35 million to the University of Arkansas
Medical System.
Medicare I Medicaid Bill of 2000. This bill, which invested about $35 billion over 5 years
�in Medicare and Medicaid, would provide Arkansas with an estimated $350 million over
5 years, including: $300 million in Medicare reimbursement; nearly $20 million in higher
Medicaid Disproportionate Share Hospital (DSH) allotments; and nearly $30 million in
Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) funds under the redistribution formula in
FY 2001. These numbers have not been made public yet.

balanced budget included both President Clinton's $1,500 HOPE Scholarship to help make
the first two years of college as universal as a high school diploma and a Lifetime Learning
Tax Credit for college juniors, seniors, graduate students and working Americans pursuing
lifelong learning to upgrade their skills. This 20% tax credit will be applied to the first

in Arkansas will receive a HOPE Scholarship tax credit of up to $1,500. 50,000
students in Arkansas will receive the Lifetime Learning Tax Credit. [fully phased-in
FY2000 estimate]
Expanded Job Training to Arkansas' Dislocated Workers: President Clinton's FY 2001

transit projects.
INVESTING IN ARKANSAS' HEALTH
• Health Care for Nearly One Thousand Uninsured Children in Arkansas: fu 1997,
President Clinton passed the largest single investment in health care for children since 1965 - an unprecedented $24 billion over five years to cover as many as five million children
throughout the nation. This investment guarantees the full range ofbenefits that children
need to grow up strong and healthy. Two million children nationwide have health care
coverage thanks to the President's plan, including 913 in Arkansas. [HHS, Health Care
Financing Administration, FY99 SCRIP enrollment data]
• Helping Over 82,000 Arkansas Women and Children with WIC: The Clinton
Administration is committed to full funding in the Special Nutrition Program for Women,
fufants and Children (WIC). fu FY99, Arkansas received $46.2 million in total WIC grant
funding, ·helping 82,825 women, infants and children in need receive health and food
assistance. [through 8/99]

According to the CDC, 90% or more of America's toddlers received the most critical doses
of each ofthe routinely recommended vaccines in 1996, 1997, and again in 1998surpassing the President's 1993 goal. fu Arkansas in 1998, 89% of two-year olds received
the vaccines for diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis; 90% received the vaccine for polio; 88%
received the vaccine for measles, and 89% received the vaccine for Haemophi/us influenzae
B, the bacteria causing a form of meningitis.

in ADAP funding in the last four years, up from $52 million in 1996 to $528 million in 2000.
[HHS, Health Resources and Services Administration, 4/7/00]
• Tobacco Plan Will Cut Smoking and Premature Deaths by 42% in Arkansas: The. Clinton
Administration's tobacco proposal, combined with the recently enacted state tobacco
settlements, will cut youth smoking and resulting premature deaths 42% in Arkansas by
2004. Between 2000 and 2004, 14,800 of Arkansas's youth will be kept from smoking and
9,700 will be spared a premature tobacco-related death. [Treasury Dept., 2/99]
• 1,000,000 Americans in Arkansas Cannot Be Assured They Have Patient Protections:
Even if Arkansas enacted all the protections in the Patients' Bill of Rights, 1,000,000 people
in Arkansas cannot be assured they have the comprehensive patient protections recommended
by the President's Advisory Commission. This is because the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act (ERISA) may preempt state-enacted protections. That is why the President has
4
January 2001
�called on Congress to pass a federally enforceable patients' bill of rights so that everyone
enrolled in managed care may have a basic set of protections. Notably, 500,000 Arkansas
women are in ERISA health plans and are therefore not necessarily protected. Women are
particularly vulnerable without these protections because they are greater users of health care
services, they make three-quarters ofthe health care decisions for their families, and they
have specific health care needs addressed by a patients' bill of rights .
•
CARING FOR OUR VETERANS
• · Invested Nearly $708 Million in Arkansas' Veterans: President Clinton and Vice President
Gore are committed to caring for Arkansas' 246,000 veterans. The Veterans Administration

received disability compensation or pension payments, more than 3,090 went to college on
the GI Bill, ·and 3,080 bought a home using VA loan guarantees.

increased the number of patients treated every year by over 29 percent; treated 83 percent
more homeless patients; organized approximately 1,300 sites of care delivery under 22
Veterans Integrated Service Networks; and established more than 250 new community-based
outpatient clinics. In Arkansas, the VA operates major medical centers in Little Rock and
Fayetteville. The Central Arkansas Veterans Healthcare System (CAVHS), located in Little
Rock and North Little Rock, offers a broad speCtrum of inpatient and outpatient health-care
services, and also operates two community-based outpatient clinics in Mountain Home and
ElDorado with plans for opening two more in Hot Springs and Mena. In 1999, more than
65,000 veterans received health care in Arkansas' VA facilities.
PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
• 6 Toxic Waste Sites Cleaned Up: Since 1993, the EPA has completed 6 Superfund toxic
waste cleanups in Arkansas-- in Omaha, Edmondson, Ola, and three in Jacksonville. This is
double the number of sites cleaned up in Arkansas dmjng the previous two administrations.

Clinton, Arkansas will receive $11 million for the Drinking Water State Revolving Funds to

• Expanding the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit Will Help Develop 1,900 To 2,300 New
Affordable Housing Units in Arkansas Over the Next 5 years: Last year, the President and
5
January 2001
�•
Vice President pushed for a 40-percent expansion in the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit.
This year, the President and Vice President will try again to enact tax incentives to develop
affordable housing. In Arkansas alone, this proposal would mean an additional 1,900 - 2,300
quality rental housing units for low-income American families during the next five years.
PROVIDING DISASTER RELIEF
• $71.5 Million in Federal Emergency Assistance: Since 1993, Arkansas has received $71.5
million in disaster relief. This includes $107.2 million in assistance to recover from
Hurricane Opal, which occurred in October of 1995. [FEMA, 2/29/00]
EXPANDING FUNDS FOR TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT
• Over $1.3 Billion in Federal HighwavAid: Since 1993, Arkansas has received over $1.3
