                CHANGING THE BUSINESS THAT CONGRESS DOES

  (Mr. FOX asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. FOX. Mr. Speaker, 2 weeks ago a majority of both Democrats and 
Republicans voted to reform Congress. Now that we have changed the way 
Congress does business, I am looking forward to, in a bipartisan 
fashion, changing the business Congress does. The people of this 
country have become impatient with a government that has grown too big, 
spends too much, and is an enemy, not a friend, to working Americans.
  [[Page H301]] We are going to prove our commitment to reducing the 
size and scope of Government by working for the passage of a balanced 
budget amendment. Every American family knows the importance of living 
within its means. Congress needs to learn that same discipline, and I 
encourage my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to support the 
passage of the balanced budget amendment.
