Eric Cantor: “I would like to turn, Madam Speaker, to the issue of committee ratios. And I do know that there has been some progress…”

Now while I intend to serve out my term as a member in Congress, effective July 31st I will be stepping down as majority leader. It is with great humility that I do so knowing the tremendous honor it has been to hold this position.

People are upset and they're justifiably frustrated. They're out of work. The economy is not moving. Their sense of security for the future is not clear at all. People are afraid and I get it.

Not a week goes by that I don't hear examples from the people I represent in Michigan and job creators about the increasing costs and how Obamacare is making it harder for businesses to invest, grow, and hire people.

I, for one, am increasingly concerned about the growing mobs occupying Wall Street and the other cities across the country.
