Mr. Speaker, I yield myself an additional 15 seconds. It's urgent. So this Invest in American Jobs Act of 2010 will create the jobs we need to keep moving America forward. To vote ``no'' is to vote America moving backwards. Mr. Speaker, I…

Mr. Speaker, I yield myself 3 minutes. This is a bill to stimulate jobs here, not over there, to create American jobs and close tax loopholes that encourage companies to ship overseas. There is no excuse to vote ``no.'' It is noteworthy…

Mr. Speaker, I ask that all Members have 5 legislative days to revise and extend their remarks and insert extraneous material into the Record. The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the gentleman from Michigan? There…

I yield back the balance of my time. The SPEAKER pro tempore. All time for debate has expired. Pursuant to House Resolution 1568, the previous question is ordered on the bill. The question is on the engrossment and third reading of the…

I would just hope that between now and the time the majority leader moves to reconsider that vote that we would hear loudly and clearly from those organizations representing community bankers, representing small businesses. Maybe they just…

I wonder, through the Chair, if I could inquire of the chairman of the Small Business Committee--unless the majority leader is seeking the floor. I am trying to figure out exactly why it is that the Republicans, who over and over say they…
