THE WHITE HOUSE

Office of the Press Secretary

For Immediate Release July 19, 1994

STATEMENT BY CHIEF OF STAFF LEON PANETTA

The President's bottom line is what it's always been -- guaranteed health coverage for every American. And that's what he said to the Governors today.

Are we willing to discuss ways to guarantee universal coverage? Absolutely. Are we changing the goal? Absolutely not.
