The House assembled at 11:00 A.M.
Deliberations were opened with prayer by the Chaplain of the House of Representatives, the Rev. Dr. Alton C. Clark as follows:
As we move towards the last activities of this Session, we come, Lord, in the awareness of how precious is this time. We, therefore, seek Your guidance to use our every God-given moment carefully and wisely. Keep us focused on doing Your will as we, with hands joined, walk and work as partners together.
May Your never failing presence be within us to refresh us, above us to bless us, around us to protect us, before us to lead us, and beneath us to hold us up. So soon, now, we will go our separate ways. Wherever we go, whatever we do, may our relationship with our God be not as a spare tire, but as a steering wheel always.
The Lord bless us and keep us, now and forever. Amen.

Dear Mr. Speaker and Members of the House:
I am returning H. 4600, R. 520, the 1996-1997 Appropriations Act, with vetoes.
Part IA, Section 17B, B&C-Division of Operations, page 67, line 40, -OTHER PERSONAL SERVICE 30,000. This veto is necessary to comply with balanced budget requirements and offsets my veto of Section 64 in Part II.
Part IB, Section 11, Attorney General's Office, page 407, proviso 11.10. - I am vetoing this proviso because it eliminates a resource directed to support investigation and prosecution of insurance fraud.
