families are the core of American society. Families are the principle mechanism through which values, knowledge, and discipline is passed from one generation to the next. Why must working families suffer at the hands of the Government and its irresponsible spending habits? Families are required to pay more each year in taxes to support the failed welfare state and other failed programs. To put an end to this tax and spend mentality, we have unveiled a tax relief plan that is pro-family and pro-economic growth. In fact, an additional $20 will go into each family's pocket for every dollar that is given to the Government. More exactly, 76 percent of the tax reductions, will go directly to families. Also, we have included a tax relief provision for small businesses and for future investment. These provisions incorporated with the contract will benefit families while getting the country back on track.

Unfortunately we have to lose my son in this manner. Had this bill been in place I think it would protect young men as they were jogging down the street.

Many of us in the Congress are very concerned about the continued spending of billions and billions and billions of dollars and not being able to show the taxpayer--how they are benefiting.
