                         PASS A TAX RELIEF PLAN

  (Mr. JONES asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. JONES. Mr. Speaker, Thomas Jefferson had it right when he said, 
``a wise and frugal government * * * shall not take from the mouth of 
labor the bread it has earned.''
  Liberals would reject that sound advice.
  However, Republicans will revive that Jeffersonian spirit by passing 
a tax relief plan that is pro-family, will create jobs, and increase 
saving and investment. We will pay for these tax cuts by putting the 
Federal Government on a strict diet. We will scrutinize the entire 
budget to find waste fraud and abuse.
  Now you will hear a lot from the Democrats about fairness.
  But is it fair to penalize middle-class families for saving for the 
future?
  Is it fair to rob our children's future to pay for Clinton's spending 
binge?
  I say no. It is time to change business as usual.
