“I view this bill as a chance for us to grow the economy, as a chance for us to do something to create jobs and opportunities. We may disagree on what are the various issues and what we need to do to create those jobs, to address issues for people who have lost work in a certain area, and to create them in another area. But what we are dealing with in this class action reform bill, this Class Action Fairness Act--I serve on the Judiciary Committee; we passed this bill out on a bipartisan vote in the Judiciary Committee--is to try to deal with the legal system that is putting too much burden on business so that it cannot create jobs here, and so then those jobs and economic opportunities go somewhere else.”
