With ObamaCare, the States are going to have to cut more. In fact, we already see first responders--fire departments, police departments-- being cut in their funding. In State after State, there are educational funding cuts across the…

I strongly support S. 3987, the Red Flag Program Clarification Act of 2010, which will remove a regulatory burden that our nation's small businesses are facing. In November of 2007, the Federal Trade Commission issued a regulation, known…

Absolutely. In fact, I was going to do that. I appreciate my colleague, Dr. Gingrey, for reminding me. I have a poster here with these four commonsense solutions. And actually I introduced the bill when my Democratic colleagues wouldn't…

I greatly appreciate you yielding, and I appreciate you doing this tonight so that we can inform the American public about how bad this bill is and what the Republicans are going to try to do in this next Congress. We heard all during the…

In fact, this first bullet about 100 percent deductibility will solve the problem with portability. Right now, 85 percent of America gets their health insurance through their employer. It is because employers can deduct the cost of their…

It does give extra mandates on the States, and the States are already overburdened and suffering financially. Republicans have an alternative to support child nutrition without growing government, but we are not able to bring those things…

I'm a medical doctor, and I have spent almost four decades of practicing medicine concerned about child nutrition and about the health of my patients. But this act is not about child nutrition. It's not about healthy kids. It's really…

The American people just say where are the jobs, and these illegal aliens here in this country must go home. We must secure the border first and foremost. We must make English the official language of America. We must enforce the laws on…

This bill is nothing more than another state bailout that prevents states from making responsible budgetary decisions while increasing federal deficit spending. It provides $26.1 billion in temporary state education and Medicaid assistance…

Americans all over this country are asking, Where are the jobs? Where are the jobs? We just heard from the previous speaker bragging about the Recovery Act, which has been an abject failure, an abject failure. There have been very few…

Where are the jobs? We need to have different policies to create jobs than what we've been given by Ms. Pelosi and company. I yield back.

It's going to hurt the poor people. It's going to hurt the seniors who are on limited income more than anybody else. And it seems to me that this disastrous economic as well as environmental disaster that has happened in the gulf is being…

Real quickly, the people I talk to don't want an unemployment check, they want a paycheck.

Over the last several weeks, I've done numerous America Speaking Out town halls all across the 10th Congressional District in Georgia. And what I hear from my constituents, from the most liberal communities all the way to the most…

Yes. Well, it's an energy tax that's going to tax everybody in all sectors of the society. It's going to hurt poor people, people on limited income because more of their money is expended on things that are critical for life.

Just recently, just last week, our President went before the G-20, I guess is what it's called now, and he was encouraging them to spend, spend, spend. As you brought up Lord Keynes' name, there is something called Keynesian economics…

I'm old enough to remember that Cuba, prior to the Communist takeover of their country, was a very vibrant community and very economically sound. There were some inequities and problems there. I'm not trying to promote Mr. Batista's…

Everybody is going to get taxed. So that was a falsehood. In Georgia, we call that a bald-faced lie. The promise that we had that people who made under $250,000 would not be taxed is totally wrong, and he knew it. In Georgia, the people…

In Scripture, Proverbs tells us a good man leaves an inheritance to his children's children. And the inheritance we're leaving to our children's children is a mound of debt that they'll know we'll never overcome. We've got to stop the…

this was an article, this didn't come from Glenn Beck or Rush Limbaugh or Sean Hannity, it came from The Hill, one of the Hill newspapers up here called The Hill, on April 14, 2010, this year, talking about this Congress, talking about…

It's just inane. It's unconscionable that this leadership here in this House isn't even going to attempt, not even attempt to bring about a budget for this Congress to vote on. And why is that? Why would they not, particularly with these…

Well, I think it goes back to something that the President's chief of staff said when he said that a crisis is too good to waste. I suggested to the Secretary today that this is a crisis that they shouldn't ignore because it appears to…

We hear from our Democratic colleagues over and over again that all this is Bush's fault. We're still hearing that on this floor. It's Bush's fault. President Bush in 2003 was trying to rein in Freddie and Fannie. The Bush administration…

They didn't deal with anything. They didn't deal with any of the things that Bill Clinton suggested that they do. And the interesting thing is that the Secretary said that this panel was suggesting that we have this moratorium. The panel…

I brought up to him a quote from Bill Clinton, Democratic President. I don't very often quote Bill Clinton or Democratic Presidents, but Bill Clinton urged this administration, first, to stop the leak; second, to clean up the oil; and…
