August 2, 1994 - Part 6
(01:30:14) Mr. ALTMAN. I believe that was the date, Senator, yes, Senator BOND. And our records seem to reflect that it was Tuesday , March 23, you had your first staff meeting at the RTC, the following Tuesday. You bad to testify in Congress on Tuesday, March 15, and so you bad your first staff meeting on Tuesday, March 23. Mr. ALTMAN. Perhaps I did. I can't recall the specific date. Senator BOND. Yesterday, Mr. Roelle testified that at the end of that staff meeting, on March 23, he gave you the first indication that the criminal referrals pertaining to Madison mentioned Bill and Hillary Clinton. Now, this is inconsistent with your written testimony, you said you did not recall it, but from the deposition of Mr. Roelle, he was asked: Question: Did you at any time inform Mr. Altman of the 1992 criminal referral? Answer: I did. Question: When did you do that? Answer. The first day he had a staff meeting. He asked us was there anything that he should know about, anything that was going on that would likely be high visibility, or any kind of a major issue. According to Mr. Roelle's deposition: I waited until the majority of the people had left and I can't remember who was there beside Mr. Newman and Mr. Altman, There may have been somebody else from the Treasury, but I just can't recall and I told him at that time that there had been a criminal referral mentioning the Clintons that had been referred to the Justice Department. No, having those additional specifies, does that give you any additional recollection of that March 1993 meeting and what went on? Mr. ALTMAN. No, sir, it doesn't. I think I've testified under oath now 5 or 6 times in connection with this whole matter and each time I have said the first time I recollect learning of this was last fall when Mr. Roelle or Ms. Hanson or both told me. I don't have any recollection of that March 1993 meeting. Of course, that occurred about a year before the testimony here on February 24, but I don't recall it. Let me also say no one has suggested, I don't believe, that I did anything with the information if I had it, but my answer was Senator BOND. Mr. Altman, I'm limited on time and if I were going 7 to ask that question, I would have asked it. I'm asking for another purpose. The evening of March 23 at 9:04 p.m., there was an article that came from your office. It was faxed to Bernie Nussbaum from Roger Altman. Is this your handwriting, did you fax that yourself at 9:04 p.m.? Mr. ALTMAN. May I see the document? Senator DAMATO. What day is that, I'm sorry? Senator BOND. March 23 at 9:04 p.m. Senator DAMATO. P.M.? Senator BOND, P.M. 9:04 p.m. Mr. ALTMAN. That's not my handwriting. Senator BOND. That was faxed from your office, that's your fax number? Mr. ALTMAN. That's my fax number. Senator BOND. We bad another copy of that fax that was given to us, turned over and it had the time redacted, but we got the extra co copy that showed the time was 9:04 p.m. Then there was a second tax. It was refaxed to Bernie Nussbaum at 8:58 a.m. the next In morning Thus the articles were faxed twice, one at 9:04 p.m. Tuesday night and one at 8:58 a.m. Wednesday morning to Bernie Nussbaum with the clipping from The New York Times from March 9 1992, "Clinton Defends Real Estate Deal." Says he lost at least $25,000 and did nothing improper. Now, twice that was faxed within 12 hours, on the evening of March 23 and the following morning. It seems to me more than curious that there had not been something to trigger this flurry of faxes to Bernie Nussbaum about Whitewater. It showed that there Was a very real sensitivity and concern about Whitewater from Something that bad happened that day. Mr. ALTMAN. May I respond to that, Senator? Senator BOND. I didn't ask a question, but I'd be happy to have YOU make a brief comment. 440 Mr. ALTMAN. I don't see anything wrong with faxing a press article at any time to anyone Senator BOND. I didn't ask you that. Is it still your testimony that you don't recall having someone search for these articles about Whitewater, you don't remember anything about it, this wasn't your idea, somehow the fax machine just spit out the Whitewater article and sent it to

Pres, Roosevelt Hails Security Act On 3rd Anniversary
Shaky, dull in contrast and imagery Pres. Roosevelt, speaking on the 3rd anniversary of the Social Security Act, praises the measure as helpful to 67,000,000 US Citizens-yet one that would still be but a dream had 'reactionaries' been in control of the government. President Roosevelt addresses the Social Security Act: Social Security Act is three years old. Five years ago the term Social Security was new to most American ears. Today it has significance for more than 40-million men and woman workers. Whose applications for old age insurance accounts has been received. And for 27 1/2 million men and women wage earners who earned credits on the state unemployment insurance laws. These accomplishments of three years are impressive. And yet we should not be unduly proud of them. Our government in fulfilling obvious obligations for the citizens of the country, has been doing so, only because the citizens require action from the representatives. If the people during these past few years had chosen a reactionary administration or a do-nothing congress, Social Security would still be in the conversational stage. A beautiful dream which might come true in the dim distant future.

August 2, 1994 - Part 6
(01:35:36) Mr. ALTMAN. That's not my position, Senator. I may well have faxed this to Mr. Nussbaum. Senator BOND. Once in the evening and once in the morning. Mr. ALTMAN. I doubt I would have faxed it twice, but this is a press clip- ping, this is a press article. For the life of me, I can't un- derstand why someone would think faxing a press article to anybody at any time would be wrong. Senator BOND. Let me just go back to the point I was making, Mr. Roelle said he told you on March 23 about the criminal referrals. What you did that evening at 9:04 p.m., an unusual time to be faxing, and again at 8:58 a.m. the next morning, was to fax two different copies of the same article to Mr. Nussbaum reflecting Whitewater concerns of the President. The article dealt with President Clinton's problems. That is corroborating evidence that Mr. Roelle Mr. ALTMAN. No, sir, it isn't. Senator BOND. I didn't ask you for that judgment, Mr. Altman. I'm just saying that for those of us who are trying to determine whether Mr. Roelle is correct in saying he told you about it, these two activities are very consistent with you having been notified by Mr. Roelle. Now, yesterday, Mr Roelle testified that on or about September 23, he was notified of a second set of Madison criminal referrals which named the Clintons. Could you please tell us what Mr. Roelle told you? Mr. ALTMAN. I'd like to go back for a moment, Senator, and just address briefly the other question you raised. Senator BOND. I didn't ask a question. We're running out of time, Mr. Altman. Mr. ALTMAN. I'd just like an opportunity to respond to what you said. Mr. Nussbaum testified before the House under oath and I believe that Mr. Cutler's chronology also goes into this. Mr. Nussbaum, I'm quite sure, testified that he received no information on the criminal referrals from me in March, and I want to stress that. Now, as to this last question Senator BOND. Let me follow up. He did receive from you two faxes relating to the Clinton Whitewater deal. OK your answer to my question. Mr. ALTMAN. Well, I thought the question implied, that, if Mr. Roelle had said to me in March, information about the criminal referrals, and then, if I had sent the faxes, that somehow I would have imparted improper information which I did not Senator BOND. I did not say that Mr Altman. Would you go back to the question. Do you remember 'what Mr. Roelle told you on September 23? Mr. ALTMAN. As I testified here before this Committee on February 24, 1 thought I testified rather clearly, in the fall Mr. Roelle 441 or Ms. Hanson or both advised me that a criminal referral was working its way through the system. They did not tell me what the prospects for making the referral were, in other words, whether it would likely be made or not be made. Nothing was told to me on that. Senator BOND. But you did. I asked you if he told you and you said he did. I believe that was the short answer, Now, yesterday Ms. Hanson testified that you specifically told her to tell Mr. Nussbaum about these referrals. Can you tell us what you recall you told Ms. Hanson? Mr. ALTMAN. As I said a few moments ago, Senator, I don't recall that and I don't believe I would have asked her to do that. Senator BOND. Mr. Chairman, the time is up. We have it very clearly in the deposition and in the testimony of Ms. Hanson. Thank you. The CHAIRMAN. Thank you, Senator Bond. Senator Sasser, you wish to be recognized? Senator SASSER. Yes, Mr. Chairman, I do. The CHAIRMAN. Senator Sasser. Senator SASSER. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Altman, it's clear that there is a discrepancy between your testimony and that of Ms. Hanson, and you testified that you did not request Ms. Hanson to initiate a September 1993 discussion with the White House regarding the referrals that were coming up from the Kansas City office. Did you request Ms. Hanson to have any other discussions with anyone else on the subject of the referrals that were coming from the Kansas City office of the RTC? Mr. ALTMAN. Senator, I don't recall suggesting Ms. Hanson advise anyone.

(00:15:34) Mr. ALTMAN. I believe that FIRREA, the law FIRREA permits, in this case, the Treasury to-it says here, "the RTC is authorized to utilize the employees of the FDIC or, on consent, the personnel of any other Executive Department or Agency. As interim CEO of the RTC, Mr. Altman exercised all of the powers of the RTC and thus was authorized to use the time of Treasury personnel on RTC matters." Senator DODD. So that's the authority? Mr. ALTMAN. Yes, sir. Senator DODD. I might just ask you at some point here to submit to us, to this Committee a more formal set of recommendations on how we avoid this kind of mess in the future. Mr. ALTMAN, Yes, sir. Senator DODD. I yield back my time. Senator DOMENICI. Senator Dodd, do you have a couple of seconds? Could I just clarify something and ask you if you knew this: A lot of comments have been made about the Office of Government Ethics and their report. It's my understanding that they only spoke to employees of the Treasury Department. Now that's a very big difference because this whole dispute is a dispute between what Treasury Department people say and what White House people say. So with reference to that, it does seem to me that the conclusion is a conclusion about the Department of the Treasury, but not about the myriad of people players involved in this. Can somebody tell me if I'm right or wrong? Senator DODD. Well, I don't know. You may be right. All I'm saying is that because when I first heard about this, it sounded to me like it was somewhat like a Treasury operation looking at itself and I'm a little suspicious when people look at themselves. I felt much better about it when I was told that it was an independent operation. I think I'm correct in that. Mr. ALTMAN. Yes, Senator. Senator DODD. And two, the person who beads it was a Republican appointee who's been maintained and kept on the job as I understand it. These are not people necessarily who are trying to protect anybody or cover an body. Now, maybe, their mandate should be broader, to look at other people and that may be the case, but they struck me as being pretty straightforward honest people who don't have an axe to grind or to cover anybody's act up. If they thought something was done , I think they'd tell us. Senator DOMENICI. I didn't say that. 511 Senator DODD. My point is, I think we've got to understand who these people are. The CHAIRMAN. Well, let me Just Say to the Members here several people are seeking recognition. Senator Kerry is, Senator Dodd is finished. By rights, it's supposed to rotate to this side. Is it a parliamentary inquiry that you re making? Senator KERRY. It 's not so much a parliamentary inquiry Mr. Chairman, as it is an answer to the question that was asked by the Senator from New Mexico. The CHAIRMAN. Senator Gramm is next in the order. Would you be willing to yield for a moment Senator GRAMM. Not on my time, I wouldn't, I would be willing to withhold and let him go ahead. The CHAIRMAN. He's prepared to withhold, Senator Kerry. Why don't you make your point. Senator KERRY. The point I was going to make, I simply wanted to answer my friend. I would think that he ought to take he may not have hag the time yet and I'm sure he will want to read this and will, but the report from the Office of Government Ethics makes it very clear that as to the meeting in February that there was no disclosure of nonpublic information in any way that was a violation, No. 1; and No. 2, that there was no furtherance of anybody's own interest or that of another. And therefore, there was no ethical violation as to that meeting. In addition to that, with respect to Mr. Altman personally----and this is by name, this is not generic-it found that as to the meeting with Mr. Ickes on the discussion with respect to recusal there was also no violation. Now, in fairness it did leave open a question with respect to Mr. Altman's role on September 29 Sim simply because there wasn't adeluate information on the 1993 disclosure by Ms. Hanson. It did find the disclosure by Ms. Hanson did not violate ate the rules. You have an independent ruling as to three tiers with respect to Mr. Altman and Ms. Hanson, but there is one open question remaining Senator SARBANES. Mr. Chairman, Senator Domenici. Senator DOMENICI. Yes, sir.

(00:20:17) Senator SARBANES. To respond very specifically to your question - because I have here now the two volumes from the OGE. Apparently they did take depositions of a number of the White House people including Eggleston, Gearan, Ickes, Lindsey, McLarty, Nuss- baum, Sloan, Stephanopoulos and Williams, so they're in these volumes and they did take their depositions. Senator DOMENICI. I was misinformed, Mr. Chairman. The CHAIRMAN. Senator Gramm. GRAMM. Mr. Chairman, I don't want to spend any time ask a question on it, but since it's been raised I want read two statements from this so- called ethics report. One is Senator DODD. What do you mean, "so- called ethics report"? Senator GRAMM. Well, if you wish, this ethics report. OK Let me read the statements. "We believe that you could conclude that the Senator DAMATO. How come you get to be so outraged all the time? 512 Senator GRAMM. Let me just read two statements. I'll get my questions. "We believe that you could conclude that the appearance ciple was not violated by Ms. Hanson's disclosure." That is est standard that you could set. You could conclude that it violated. They don't conclude it wasn't violated. They just say could conclude. Second, they say "we feel there is insufficient information to en- able us to provide you with any further analysis of Mr. Altman's participation in this disclosure if any." If this is a fig leaf, it's mighty small fig leaf. Now, let me go back to Mr. D'Amato's point and make several quick points that are important. If the issue of whether or not Mr Altman told this Committee something that was not true is not rel- evant, I wonder what is. Whether you are a Democrat or Repub- lican, no matter who your I loyalties are to, it is a relevant issue here as to whether a witness before this Committee tells the truth. We have established here at several different points that, in fact, the truth was not told to this Committee, Since Mr. D'Amato speaks in a strange dialect that some of us have trouble understanding, maybe it wasn't clear what be was saying, but for the rest of the country, let me translate. What he was saying is this: He asked a question. Did anyone request this meeting to which Mr. Altman referred? Mr. Altman is on the record saying, and I quote, "I requested the meeting." Then Mr. D'Amato says, "was there any other meeting that may have been requested?" To which Mr. Altman says, "no." Now, it is true that Mr. D'Amato's next statement, which Mr. D'Amato said in a question, was, "there was no other meeting that you were aware of that the White House Counsel requested?" The point is, that Mr. D'Amato never uttered that word about the White House until you first-had said, "no." So unless you have the a ability to look into Mr. D'Amato's mind you could never have known that he was going to say anything about the White House, which is your change in the question. That could not have been known by you in advance. But even if it could have been known, even if your mental Powers allowed you to look into Mr. D'Amato's mind, then Mr. Domenici subsequently it asked you directly, when you kept using this evasive term about substantive contact"-and we're not talking about meetings here, we're talking about contacts. And Senator Domenici says you're not suggesting there were any other contacts. He's not saying anything about the White House setting them up or who- ever was setting them up. And you say, "no." That is why Mr. D'Amato's statement is very, very important. submit that we are wasting our time, and we're wasting the air waves of the Nation, if it is not relevant when a witness tells us something that is not so. Now 2 hours ago when I had the floor Mr. ALTMAN. May I respond to that? Senator GRAMM, If you would do it very briefly. Senator DODD. If my colleague would yield just on the one point, I never said it wasn't relevant. My point simply was that I thought two people could draw different conclusions. 513 Senator GRAMM. They couldn't on three occasions, though, Chris. On three occasions, there was a point blank question. But I don't yield. I've got some things that I want to develop in the short time I have. I'm sorry, I love my colleagues. If, Mr. Altman, you could give me a short answer.
