                      DEMOCRAT TAXES--ONCE AGAIN!

  (Mr. PRICE of Georgia asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute.)
  Mr. PRICE of Georgia. Madam Speaker, I rise today to warn all 
Americans of the looming taxation tidal wave that is coming under this 
new Democrat majority.
  Democrats have unveiled their tax-and-spend budget proposal which 
will bring upon the American people the largest tax increase in our 
Nation's history.
  Rather than allow Americans to make choices about how best to spend 
their own money, it is clear that Democrats feel they and Washington 
bureaucrats better understand what is good for American families.
  Our Democrat colleagues repeatedly claim that the Republican tax cuts 
only benefit the wealthy. Well, Madam Speaker, the lowest-income 
Americans are about to find out just how untrue that tired rhetoric is.
  The tax hikes will hit all Americans in every tax bracket, the middle 
class, low-income families and small businesses.
  But there is an alternative. House Republicans have vowed to not just 
extend but make permanent the pro-growth low-tax policies that have 
brought recovery to our economy.
  Madam Speaker, we can move away from this tired trend of big and 
bigger government. We can return money back to the rightful owner, the 
American taxpayer; and we should start right now.
