            LET US HAVE TRUE BIPARTISANSHIP AND TRUE REFORM

  (Mr. HAYWORTH asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. HAYWORTH. Mr. Speaker, it should come as no surprise that my 
colleagues on the left want to posture in the name of reform. After 
all, they, and to tell the truth, all the American people, have been 
embarrassed by an administration that took campaign donations from the 
People's Republic of China. That is despicable. So we would ask in a 
bipartisan fashion that they join with us to get to the bottom of 
Chinese influence on our government and on our political system, and 
that is the real step to reform.
  In addition, Mr. Speaker, I would ask my friends on the left to give 
the working men and women of America who happen to belong to unions the 
right to devote their union dues directly to collective bargaining, 
instead of going into the campaign coffers of liberal interest groups. 
That is another real step for reform.
  Let us have true bipartisanship and true reform, quit the preening 
and posturing, and stand up for America.
