                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. CLIFF STEARNS

                               of florida

                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, July 21, 2009

  Mr. STEARNS. Madam Speaker, as the polls show disapproval for the 
Democrat health care up to 44 percent and now more than 43 percent of 
Americans now see the Obama Democrats as the old-style, tax and spend 
liberals. The President is starting to take note.
  He has delayed the White House release of its mid-year budget review. 
The administration officials have rescheduled its release to conceal 
record-breaking deficits. At the same time, the Democrat leaders rush 
to take over healthcare and they continue to push cap and tax 
legislation.
  Both of these bills will push spending out of control.
  The Democrats won't even listen to the CBO Director Elmendorf who 
said their healthcare bill won't save money but will add to the 
deficit.
  Madam Speaker, the Democrats need to work in a bipartisan way to gain 
control of our spending to create jobs for the American people.
