                       LET US CUT TAXES THIS WEEK

  (Mr. CHABOT asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. CHABOT. Good morning. My name is Steve, and I am a tax cutter. I 
never realized I had a problem with this compulsion when I was back 
home in the real world, but, when I landed inside the beltway, I knew I 
was in real trouble.
  I had always believed that we should let working Americans keep more 
of their hard-earned paychecks. I had always thought we ought to give 
senior citizens in this country a break. I thought I was normal, but 
then I came to Washington, and the liberals and the bureaucrats have 
tried to show me the error of my ways. They have tried to convince me 
that the money I always thought belonged to the taxpayers really 
belongs to the Federal Government. They tried to convince me that 
bureaucrats know best, more better than what the working men and women 
of this country do. They think that bureaucrats are smarter than the 
folks back home.
  Well, that is baloney. Maybe being a tax cutter is not so bad. In 
fact, doggone it, I am proud to be a tax cutter.
  Let us cut taxes like the Republicans want to do this week.
