                 WORKING FAMILIES WANT THE RIGHT THING

  (Mr. McCOTTER asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. McCOTTER. Mr. Speaker, we in Michigan understand the need for 
timely action on a stimulus plan that can help create jobs. We have 
suffered long. We have suffered hard. We believe that the proper action 
of the Federal Government can play a temporary stimulative effect that 
helps us. But perhaps we are being finicky, because we do not merely 
want something, we want the right thing. And we know that, above all, 
working families cannot afford a $1 trillion mistake that does not help 
them keep their jobs, keep their homes and keep their hopes for the 
future.
