         SUPPORT AMERICA BY SUPPORTING THE BALANCED BUDGET ACT

  (Mr. SAM JOHNSON of Texas asked and was given permission to address 
the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. SAM JOHNSON of Texas. Mr. Speaker, the President must have 
inhaled, because last night he asked the American taxpayers to give him 
an additional $874 billion of their money for more Government, more 
taxes, and more spending.
  This proves that once again the President has no intention of 
balancing the Federal budget. He would rather add billions of dollars 
to our debt.
  What the President is doing is reckless. He has replaced leadership, 
responsibility, and the wishes of the American people with big 
Government and political games.
  If the President is truly for a balanced budget, then he will sign 
the continuing resolution and join Republicans by embracing a 7-year 
balanced budget bill that will ensure a strong and secure future for 
our country. Americans, once again tell the President to support 
America by supporting the Balanced Budget Act.
