                         CONCURRENT RESOLUTION


 
   Providing a sense of the Congress regarding the reduction of the 
         national debt of the United States held by the public.

Whereas the national debt of the United States held by the public is $3.619 
        trillion as of fiscal year 1999,
Whereas the Federal budget is projected to produce a surplus each year in the 
        next 10 fiscal years, and
Whereas refunding taxes and reducing the national debt held by the public will 
        assure continued economic growth and financial freedom for future 
        generations: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring), 
That it is the sense of the Congress that the national debt held by the 
public should be reduced from $3.619 trillion to a level below $1.61 
trillion by fiscal year 2009.
