to be certain, campaign finance questions are important, but family finance questions should come first. Mr. Speaker, today on the floor of this House we will take an important step to ensure that American families keep more of their hard-earned money and send less of it here to Washington. Mr. Speaker, I hold in my hand just the ``fax'', F-A-X, a letter sent to me via facsimile from the Wilkins family in Casa Grande, AZ. The Wilkins family, Barney and Margie, are school teachers. Their kids are B.J., Megan, and Molly. The letter reads, Mr. Speaker, ``Thanks for such a nice 19th wedding anniversary gift.'' They are talking about the tax cuts we will pass later today. ``We appreciate your hard work.'' And the P.S. says this: ``Please continue to cut taxes so we don't have to work three jobs.'' This is what it is all about. Why should working families sacrifice so that Washington can waste money? The contrary should be true. Washington should sacrifice so that working families can keep more of their own money, and we make that start today.
