Mr. Speaker, from the bailouts to the failed stimulus bills to the government takeover of health care to the failure to prevent and respond timely to the BP spill disaster, Americans are sick and tired of being ignored by their government. Republicans have heard this outcry and believe it is time to let Americans lead the way, so we've launched a new initiative aimed at giving every American a voice in Washington. America Speaking Out was created as a platform for Americans to share their priorities and ideas for a national policy agenda. In addition to open forum town halls held across the country, we've launched Americaspeakingout .com, an online tool where Americans can go and express their opinion about what issues they believe government should be addressing regardless of party affiliation. Through initiatives like America Speaking Out, Americans can make their voices heard in Washington. Now is your time to speak out, America. ____________________
