   REPUBLICANS WANT TO CHANGE CONGRESS; DEMOCRATS WANT TO CHANGE THE 
                                SUBJECT

  (Mr. EVERETT asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. EVERETT. Mr. Speaker, unfortunately, events on the House floor 
the last few days may have caused some viewers to think that the 
people's House is the most expensive day care center in the world. It, 
of course, is not. The planned disruption by those with no ideas will 
not keep Republicans from changing the culture of Washington.
  Mr. Speaker, the American people elected a Republican majority in 
November. They sent a clear message: Clean up the way Congress conducts 
its business.
  We promise to bring to the floor issues that the American people want 
to see, including unfunded mandate legislation and a balanced budget 
amendment. We are working to change the culture of Washington to bring 
discipline to Congress.
  Mr. Speaker, it is time to get on with the business at hand. I want 
to change Congress, while some Democrats just want to change the 
subject.
