Mr. Speaker, America is struggling under the weight of its debt and a failing economy. Worse, Washington isn't listening. One of two new tools that we're trying to put forth, and I think they're great opportunities for the American people, is America Speaking Out. I will be doing a town hall this Saturday in my community in Sarasota to be able to pick up their ideas, identify the challenges, and with the ideas we gather, these ideas across the country, put forth an agenda for the American people this fall. The other tool that I think is very effective is YouCut. These are two different sites. You go on and make your suggestions heard. Our debt today is at $13.6 trillion. We're expected to go to $20 trillion. We've got to find a way to balance the budget. We would like to get your ideas as it relates to this. I encourage all Americans to go to these two sites. Anyone that's interested could visit my Web site, buchanan.house.gov. They're available there. We need to start listening to the American people. We need your ideas. ____________________
