If we believe--and I am very much with you on this, Representative Neal--that part of dealing with our slow productivity growth problem is greater investment in public infrastructure.
I would favor just cutting the corporate rate right now to 15 percent. And, look, if we have to borrow to do it, do it, because that is going to bring jobs back to the United States.
So it is really critical, it is really important that we use every tool at our disposal--fixing a broken Tax Code, expanding markets overseas--to make sure that we are helping everyone achieve the American Dream and getting our economy…
The American people just aren't feeling love for this recovery that the President keeps trumpeting as some kind of grand success.

Expanding trade and giving our American workers and companies more opportunities around the world creates jobs here in America: better paychecks, better opportunities, and a stronger economy for our country. Critical to that is to make…
Free trade is enforceable trade. I yield 1 minute to the gentlewoman from Indiana (Mrs. Walorski), who has fought for enforceable trade laws.
