On the recordSeptember 24, 2003

It has been 867 days since the administration began implementation of their economic plan for our country. During that time our national debt has increased by $1,159,358,743,968, according to the Bureau of the Public Debt at the Treasury Department. Yesterday at 4:30 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time, the Nation's outstanding debt, the total debt, was $6,799,684,130,327. Further, in fiscal year 2003, the interest on our national debt, what I call the debt tax, D-E-B-T tax, is $304,978,878,641 through August 31. Mr. Speaker, our country, the administration and Congress needs to return to fiscal responsibility.
