Abstract

The House of Representatives took historic action Oct. 8, 1998 and voted to initiate an impeachment inquiry against President Bill Clinton. The inquiry is based on alleged crimes Clinton committed while trying to conceal an affair he had with White House intern Monica Lewinsky. The inquiry stems from an investigative report by Independent Counsel Kenneth W. Starr, which outlines the president's alleged acts of perjury, obstruction of justice, witness tampering and abuse of power.

Abstract

A number of large and small government appropriations bills were included in the passage of a $500 billion spending measure that exceeded budget limitations set in 1997. Republicans eagerly sought the president's signature on the measure which contained an increase in defense spending, anti-drug programs and in exchange withdrew their 'policy riders.' Clinton ended up receiving more in discretionary spending then he had requested in his February budget submission.
