                               KEEP GOING

  (Mrs. SEASTRAND asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Mrs. SEASTRAND. Mr. Speaker, most of the Members of this House have 
spent the last few weeks traveling our districts and meeting with our 
constituents. In my town meetings, and in a very successful Medicare 
conference, my central coast California constituents seemed to be 
worried that this Congress will be bogged down and not complete the 
change we started the first 100 days.
  They want Medicare to be safe for future generations. They know we 
must end failed spending policies. They know that we can and must 
balance the budget and give our children a future free of debt and full 
of opportunity.
  Mr. Speaker, the American people are on to something and my 
constituents understand that after 40 years of liberals defending the 
status quo, that the new majority of this Congress is changing the 
system that created the debt and rewarded inefficiency. They want 
solutions. They want action and they want it now.
