1994 Contract with America As Republican Members of the House of Representatives and as citizens seeking to join that body we propose not just to change its policies, but even more important, to restore the bonds of trust between the people and their elected representatives. That is why, in this era of official evasion and posturing, we offer instead a detailed agenda for national renewal, a written commitment with no fine print. This year's election offers the chance, after four decades of one-party control, to bring to the House a new majority that will transform the way Congress works. That historic change would be the end of government that is too big, too intrusive, and too easy with the public's money. It can be the beginning of a Congress that respects the values and shares the faith of the American family. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S4qdcdU723Q

United States and Rwandan Genocide 1994 In 1994 after four years of fighting a civil war, the Hutu led government of Rwanda killed 800,000 Tutsis. The United Nations main effort to stop the genocide arrived four months later. The United States policy at that time was to not get involved in global events unless a certain criteria was met (see document next page). Additionally, many politicians referred to the killings as “acts of genocide” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CBfRWq0Sbhs

Dot-Com Bubble 1997-2000 Home PCs become cheaper and more common for personal and business use Many new start-up companies hope to become the next Microsoft Aol brings Internet to the masses Many investors believed Internet stocks would increase so many Americans bought stocks in companies like pet.com. This increased (inflated) the price of such stocks. However, what were such stocks really worth? Scandals and an assessment of actual companies worth forced Americans to panic sell driving stock prices down. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W2FybpdrlYM
Economic Increases 1990s In 1999, The Labor Department under Clinton published Futurework. The report was an analysis of the economy and future problems the American labor force would face. The report addresses globalization and the role computers will play in connecting workers to their jobs at all time. This constant connectivity would create longer work days for all workers.
