I thank the Presiding Officer. Madam President, as I said, we are also joined by Senator Cornyn of Texas. I am going to ask him in a minute to say a few words about the jobs plan. The input he has put into it has been terrific because he is the guy who understands, again, the importance of small business, the importance of us creating an environment through Washington laws and regulations that helps create jobs, and that it is not Washington that is going to create the jobs but the private sector that is going to do it. I ask my colleague from Texas to say a few words about his thoughts.
