On the recordJune 22, 2006

I am glad to be with Mr. Tanner and also his colleague from Ohio, Mrs. Stephanie Tubbs Jones. Mr. Tanner of Tennessee has really been the leader in the House as it relates to accountability, as it relates to working with Mr. Spratt on pay-as-we- go. He was around when we balanced the budget and we did some of the things that we needed to do on behalf of this country. So we are so glad he is here tonight to share with the 30-something Group and also with the Members of the House on what we should be doing versus what we are doing right now. I yield to Mr. Tanner.
