                         VOTE TO DEFEND AMERICA

  (Mr. HUNTER asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. HUNTER. Mr. Speaker, to follow my friend, it is true that this is 
the first President who sent our jobs to Mexico, our troops to Bosnia, 
and our balanced budget to the White House trash can.
  He has done something else, Mr. Speaker, and that is to veto the 
defense authorization bill; and the reason 

[[Page H9]]
the President vetoed the defense authorization bill is because we say 
in that bill, we shall defend America against ICBM's and have that 
system in place by the year 2003. The President refuses to defend this 
country while Iraq, Libya, China, and others hurry up and accelerate 
their programs on offensive missiles.
  Defend America. Vote to override the President's veto today.
