I thank the gentleman for his comments. As the gentleman from Oklahoma said, the Republican Study Committee budget is the only budget proposal on the table. It is the only proposal that balances the budget, that begins to rein in wasteful government spending and begins to pay down a disastrous $22 trillion national debt.

Madam Speaker, I yield to the gentleman from Georgia (Mr. Allen).
