Book excerpt: Excerpt from Field Hearing: Defense Conversion; Hearing Before the Joint Economic Committee, Congress of the United States, One Hundred Third Congress, Second Session, January 12, 1994 Wednesday, January 12, 1994 Congress of the United States, Joint Economic Committee, Washington, DC. The Committee met, pursuant to notice, at 11:10 a.m., in the Los Angeles Board of Public Works Hearing Room, Los Angeles City Hall, Los Angeles, California, Honorable Barbara Boxer (Member of the Committee) presiding. Present: Senator Boxer, and Representatives Cox and Waters. Also present: Dave Thompson, professional staff member. Opening Statement Of Senator Boxer, Member Senator Boxer. This meeting of the Joint Economic Committee will come to order. I am very pleased that Congressman Cox is joining me here. The Joint Economic Committee is a bicameral committee. It's quite unusual. It has members of the House and the U.S. Senate, Democrats and Republicans, of course. I'm very pleased that Congresswoman Maxine Waters will be joining us today, for as long as she can. The job of the Joint Economic Committee is to examine the broad range of economic issues facing this nation, including technological competitiveness, the cost of health care, fiscal and monetary policies, and job creation. The Joint Economic Committee regularly conducts hearings on various aspects of the economy. Last year, the Committee held hearings on the loss of manufacturing jobs; the cost of health care, its impact on our economy; the state of our federal research lab's technology policy; economic growth; and even dealt with foreign policy economic issues such as economic reforms in China, the former Soviet Union monetary policy, and the need to create high-wage jobs in this global economy. The Joint Economic Committee is also tasked with reviewing the annual Economic Report of the President, reporting on the Committee's findings and recommendations. Each month when you get the new unemployment figures, the Joint Economic Committee conducts a hearing to review those figures released by the Department of Labor.
