Enduring traits that built America run in America's families: That of individual responsibility, of caring for your neighbors, of contributing to the community in which you live and grow up and work, being involved in your church, in your Boy Scout troop, helping to build the community in which you live. America's future lies very securely in the hands of our families. This year in the 105th Congress, the Republican leadership and the Republican Congress will take significant steps to make a real difference in our lives and in our families' lives. We will continue to bring the budget into balance, to rein in the IRS, and to lower interest rates. We must, because today most of us pay more in taxes than for food, clothing, and shelter combined. A balanced budget means lower rates on our mortgages, our student loans, and our car loans, and annual savings of about $857 for a typical American family.
