                      BUY PRODUCTS MADE IN THE USA

  (Mr. TIM MURPHY of Pennsylvania asked and was given permission to 
address the House for 1 minute.)
  Mr. TIM MURPHY of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, defective, unsafe 
products, toys with poisonous lead paint, American jobs going overseas 
lured by cheap labor and unfair trade practices, these issues concern 
every American. But all of us can take a stand this holiday season.
  One way is that instead of judging products by cheap prices, look for 
quality and safety that comes with American products. This holiday 
season shoppers will be buying gifts made from all over the world, but 
let's make an extra effort to look for American products.
  This Christmas check the label for ``Made in the USA'' and support 
jobs for hardworking Americans and American quality. ``Made in the 
USA'' may be the best gift ever this Christmas.
