                               TAX RELIEF

  (Mr. JONES asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. JONES. Mr. Speaker, when President Clinton was running for the 
Presidency, a tax cut was one of the main features of his campaign. But 
when the President was elected, he raised taxes on the middle class. 
Where does the President stand now? Who knows.
  Mr. Speaker, in the absence of leadership from the White House, 
Republicans have introduced a tax relief plan that allows working 
Americans to keep more of the money they earn. We have not flip-flopped 
or changed our position. Instead, we stand with the vast majority of 
Americans who know all too well the impacts of higher taxes and who 
struggle to make ends meet.
  Mr. Speaker, the President may not know where he stands, but 
Republicans have consistently stood for tax relief, smaller Government, 
and a balanced budget.
