       SPENDING DISCIPLINES, TAX RELIEF BENEFIT AMERICAN FAMILIES

  (Mr. JONES asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. JONES. Mr. Speaker, families are the core of American society. 
Families are the principle mechanism through which values, knowledge, 
and discipline is passed from one generation to the next.
  Why must working families suffer at the hands of the Government and 
its irresponsible spending habits? Families are required to pay more 
each year in taxes to support the failed welfare state and other failed 
programs.
  To put an end to this tax and spend mentality, we have unveiled a tax 
relief plan that is pro-family and pro-economic growth. In fact, an 
additional $20 will go into each family's pocket for every dollar that 
is given to the Government. More exactly, 76 percent of the tax 
reductions, will go directly to families. Also, we have included a tax 
relief provision for small businesses and for future investment.
  These provisions incorporated with the contract will benefit families 
while getting the country back on track.
