“I think that, however, as we try to plug the dike, the holes in the dike of our increasing debt, this $17.3 billion action is really going to be somewhat fruitless because at the same time there are billions flowing out the other side of the dike that we are not even taking a look at, and I want to talk about that tonight. But let me say I am very proud to rise as a Democrat this evening and say that this will not be one Member who will vote to eliminate the summer jobs program, and I would love to be the opponent of any Republicans who votes to eliminate the summer jobs program--on that basis alone. In my district there are over a thousand young people; in fact there are 4,000 in line, for the summer jobs program.”
