Following
Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott's speech, House Speaker Newt Gingrich
delivered a wide-ranging speech covering domestic and foreign
topics.
Gingrich vowed to "give the surplus back to the taxpayer as a tax
cut."
"We are going to save Social Security and cut taxes," he said.
Discussing
the Clinton scandal, Gingrich declared, "We in the House will do our
duty."
He urged the audience to "say a little prayer and maybe write a
postcard
to [Judiciary Committee Chairman] Henry Hyde." On foreign policy,
Gingrich cited examples where the IMF "has failed
systematically."
"We're not turning $18 billion over to a French socialist to throw
away,"
he said.
