Who was the last president to have a surplus in the federal budget?
Clinton did not have a surplus of $230B in the year 2000 because he had to borrow $246.5 From numerous other off budget funds. Clinton NEVER ran a surplus during his 8 years in office, he just borrowed yearly from different budgets, (primarily the SS budget) to offset the general fund losses. In 2000 the following funds were borrowed which resulted in a $16.5 deficit.
$152.3B from Social Security
$30.9B from Civil Service Retirement Fund
$18.5B from Federal Supplementary Medical insurance Trust Fund
$15.0B from Federal Hospital Insurance Trust Fund
$9.0B from the Federal Unemployment Trust Fund
$8.2B from Military Retirement Fund
$3.8B from Transportation Trust Funds
$1.8B from Employee Life Insurance & Retirement fund
$7.0B from others
Total borrowed from off budget funds $246.5B, meaning that his $230B surplus is actually a $16.5B deficit.
($246.5B borrowed - $230B claimed surplus = $16.5B actual deficit).
The last time the federal government ran a true suplus was 1969, the total surplus was $3.2B and before that was $1960, $.3 B
Translation, when you are taking more than you are spending,, that is a surplus, and we were not taking in more than we were spending under Clinton.
What scandal was Bill Clinton involved in?
When Bill Clinton was president, he was in the middle of a scandal. This scandal was about the fact that he had an affair with Monica Lewinsky. Some of this affair supposedly happened in the oval office of the White House.
Was Bill Clinton impeached by Congress?
Bill Clinton was impeached on charges of perjury and obstruction of justice in December 1998, but Andrew Jackson was never impeached. President Andrew JOHNSON was impeached in 1868 for violating the Tenure of Office Act and firing the Secretary of War without the Senate's permission.
Presidents Jackson and Johnson share a first name and are often mistaken for each other.
In the Senate bills are brought to the floor by?
First the bill must be written up and drafted. Next, the Senator who advocates it will present it formally to the clerk of the Senate. It is then numbered S.___. In the House of Representatives, a bill is labeled H.R.___. The higher the number is indicates how much of a priority that bill is. As in S. 2 is a higher priority the S. 378. The numbered bill is then categorized and handed off to the committee that handles most policies in regard to that topic. Committees are formed, both standing (permanent) and temporary, for a wide range of topics. The committee formed has members of both parties, but the majority party in the Senate will have a higher number in the committee. The committee then votes on whether or not to set the bill in front of the Senate or to 'kill' it. The bill then gets voted on (assuming it made it through the committee- which may also make revisions) by the Senate. If the bill gets a majority-- even if only by one vote, it is presented to the House of Representatives. In the House of Representatives, the same process happens-- the HR and the S are very much intertwined, one may not pass anything without getting it approved by the other. The HR then numbers it, hands it off to a committee- if this committee doesn't kill it (but it may revise it) then it gets voted on. If it passes the House, then it is presented to the President. If he/she vetoes it, than the Congress must have a 2/3rds vote to override it.
IF the bill voted on in the HR is different than the original that came from the S then a joint committee of both Senate and House members must be formed to create a compromised bill. Then that bill is presented and the whole process begins again: hand off to committee, committee approves or kills, vote's taken, passed to the President.
Some bills with low priority (example: S. 678) may not even be reviewed! If this happens, then the Senator must present it to the clerk for the next Congressional session.
