  PASS THE COOPER-WOLF SAFE COMMISSION BILL TO SAVE AMERICA'S FUTURE 
                                ECONOMY

  (Mr. WOLF asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. WOLF. Mr. Speaker, our economic house is crumbling. We are being 
bought piece by piece by China and Saudi Arabia. We owe these and other 
countries billions. And in a few years, because of this crushing debt 
and our huge mandated entitlement programs, we will have no money for 
research to find cures for cancer, Alzheimer's disease, autism, or 
other diseases. No money for science advances or for education. This 
Congress cannot abandon the American people and leave our children and 
grandchildren to shoulder these awful burdens.
  There is a way to solve this dilemma. We can pass the bipartisan 
Cooper-Wolf SAFE Commission bill to save America's future economy.
  This Congress, this Congress that we serve in now, is failing, is 
failing the American people.
