“3 years ago, I visited the White House and witnessed President Bush sign several historic tax cuts into law. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi predicted that none of these cuts would create jobs, but we have actually seen 5.2 million American jobs created in only 2\1/2\ years. Additionally, our country has the lowest average unemployment rate in over four decades. By decreasing income taxes, doubling the child tax credit, reducing the marriage penalty, and creating new incentives for small businesses, Republicans have delivered tremendous economic opportunities throughout our country. Last week I was proud to visit the White House again to watch President Bush sign another law to help prevent tax increases upon American families. While Democrats have proposed to increase taxes by $772 billion, House Republicans will always fight to ensure that American families keep more of their own hard-earned income. In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget September 11. ____________________”
