I thank the gentleman from Florida. Mr. Diaz-Balart has been a powerful spokesman for responsible Federal budgeting. I now once again would like to recognize my colleague from Pennsylvania (Mr. Thompson), who will be talking further about this issue. And I want to remind people, please do go to AmericaSpeakingOut.com. Also go to the whip's Web site, Mr. Cantor, who has YouCut on it. Or you can go to the Republican Conference Web site. YouCut is the icon you want to click so you too can vote on ways to cut the Federal budget.

And again I yield to the gentleman from Pennsylvania.
