Does anyone know anything about the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993?

Yes, it was one of the most significant achievements of the Clinton administation. It resulted in deficit reduction for all eight years of the administration, and finally brought the US fiscal house in order after 12 years of Republican budget mismanagement.\n\nFor more information, try:\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omnibus_Budget_Reconciliation_Act_of_1993\n\nFor the actual text of the law:\nhttp://naic.acf.hhs.gov/general/legal/federal/pl103_66.cfm\n\nFor a report on the consequences:\nhttp://www.clevelandfed.org/Research/Com93/1015.pdf

Wonderful thing Clinton did wasn't it.  Yet people scorn Bush for the economy he was left with.    I think it sould be repealed.... in other words done away with.  But what do I know, I'm a hard working American, seeing every job around go overseas.  Call Dell, and see what type of support you can get when talking to an Indian!

No, I haven't ever heard of it before now.  But here is a sight that hopefully give you somewhere to go to get help.  I would suggest an attorney, however they take a big chunk of everything, however it may be your only hope.  Good Luck.  Bureaucracies are very difficult to get through.

Nothing "new" is in effect now that hasn't been in effect for the past few years. I presume you are referring to a loophole in the current Higher Education Act that will be closed when the reauthorized act takes effect on July 1, 2006.  This loophole allows students who have consolidated through the Federal Family Education Loan Program to "reconsolidate" (which is usually not allowed)by "churning" (for lack of a better word) their consolidation loan through the Direct Loan Program.  \n\nThere are lenders willing to do this (try searching the web for "reconsolidate")... But be careful when working with a lender/broker willing to arrange this. What kind of experience and customer service record do they have?  What are the borrower benefits and, more importantly, how does the borrower qualify and get disqualified from them?

This has been a very controversial question, because some states have the line item veto, and the US President had it for a few years but it was allowed to lapse.\n\nThe main points of controversy are:\n\n1-Spending the taxpayers' money is under the responsibility of the legislative branch, and the legislative does not have the right to give its powers to another branch, at least without some sort of oversight.\n\n2-The executive is still a party politician, and the ability to strike out specific programs is definitely a weapon that can be used against individual legislators or individual states or localities.

I dont know. I really dont know. How would you find out? Government statistics? Not a good vote-getter! Even if you go back to previous governments , its still pretty hard to judge how scrupulous they were.They , of course , 'justify' the expense - 'defending freedom' , a 'cost-effective' health service,an aging population affecting pensions ( gosh , an aging population , that must have come as a surprise!). Bit of a rant here , but I feel that you understand!

Library of Congress, All legislation is a mater of public record, but you sure have your work cut out for you. Pork spending is a day by day thing. The Senate passed a really fat bill today that President Bush has said he will veto. I hope he does. He sure hasn't done that yet. This time I hope he gets it right.

I'm not a lawyer either, but it appears that the provision was repealed in 1971 (165.140 [Repealed by 1971 c.743 §432]). I was going to recommend going to a law library and see if the law librarian would be able to point you to where the old ORS books are stored. If it was recent enough, they might even have them. But I doubt that they would for something this old. That said, the law librarian should be able to tell you how to look up the case that repealed the statute - and I would guess it would have the original text of the law.\n\nHope this helps!
