               REPUBLICANS ARE NOT CUTTING SCHOOL LUNCHES

  (Mr. LaHOOD asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. LaHOOD. Mr. Speaker, I see where several of our colleagues on the 
other side of the aisle are up to their same old class warfare tricks. 
The gentleman from Michigan, the distinguished minority whip, said that 
Republicans are giving working Americans the cold shoulder. Well, the 
Democrats' class warfare will not wash with the American people.
  Republicans are not out to cut school lunches. Actually our program 
will increase school lunches to the children of our country. We do not 
intend to cut the School Lunch Program. Our proposal will actually 
increase school lunches.
  We offer incentives. Our proposals offer better opportunities. The 
Democrats offer the same old class warfare rhetoric with more taxing 
and more spending.
  I urge the American people to look carefully at what we the 
Republicans are attempting to do, which is provide more school lunches 
for our school children.
