As I said... there is no such thing as the "Deficit Reduction Act of 1993". Clinton's legislation was called the "Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993" with Gore casting the deciding vote in the Senate.

The only talk of deficit reduction at the time was through a number of bills sponsored mostly by republicans like Gramm's S.154 and S.1514 and Porter's H.R.3183 which sought to guarantee that any Clinton tax increase went to directly deficit reduction. These were buried in committee by democrats.

Reagan signed the only recent "Deficit Reduction Act" in 1985.

So you have a factually faulty premise, as usual.
