                          END CLINTON SNOW JOB

  (Mr. SMITH of Texas asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. SMITH of Texas. Mr. Speaker, as Washington, DC, recently 
struggled to dig out from the worst blizzard in years, Americans from 
across the Nation began to see through the Clinton snow job.
  Consider the thoughts of a constituent, friend, and relative, Linda 
Seeligson from San Antonio. She rightly fears that the President's 
opposition to entitlement reform and lower taxes will steal our 
children's future. She sees through the President's Mediscare tactics. 
And she resents the President's use of generational warfare to pit 
parents against children, employers against employees, and workers 
against retirees.
  Millions of Americans agree. They reject the politics of envy and 
class warfare. They have real compassion for working families who must 
work longer to pay for big Government. They're tired of a welfare state 
paid for by the middle class. And they seek to

replace this welfare state with an opportunity society built on 
personal responsibility.
  Bill Clinton ran for office claiming to represent the people who do 
the work, pay the taxes, and raise the children. Americans like Linda 
Seeligson want a balanced budget, lower taxes, and less government.
  And they want an end to the Clinton blizzard of more spending and 
higher taxes.
