                                  JOBS

  Mrs. HUTCHISON. Madam President, I think it is very important that 
all of us look for ways to create jobs. We are very concerned about 
jobs not keeping up with the recovery. That is why we are trying to 
pass an energy bill. It is why we are trying to make sure we keep the 
tax cuts so that people will spend the money they have. That is why we 
have seen an increase in the value of the stock market. It is very 
important that we continue to focus on jobs. And I assure you, the 
President and the Congress are going to do that.

  Thank you, Madam President.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Washington.
