           IT IS TIME TO SET OUR COUNTRY ON THE RIGHT COURSE

  (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, what do the American people want? They 
want a Federal Government that is smaller, less costly, and less 
intrusive. They want us to cut spending and balance the budget. They 
want relief from taxes. They want us to reform the broken welfare 
system. And they want us to save Medicare from going bankrupt.
  This is exactly why the people elected a Republican majority for the 
first time in 40 years. They wanted change from the status quo, and we 
have delivered that change. They wanted Republicans to keep our 
promises to balance the budget, cut taxes, reform welfare, and save 
Medicare. We have kept our promises.
  Now it is our President's turn. Will President Clinton keep the 
promises he made? It is time to set our country on the right course. It 
is what the people want.
