                               JOBS BILL

  (Mr. LANCE asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. LANCE. Mr. Speaker, the American people are frustrated with the 
ideas coming out of Washington by the Democratic majority to fix our 
broken economy: higher taxes, more spending, record debt, more 
regulations, and government-run health care. That is not a plan to 
create jobs and jump-start our ailing economy.
  I am proud to be a sponsor of a 5-point jobs plan introduced by my 
colleague from Florida (Mr. Buchanan) that provides meaningful tax 
relief for individuals and businesses, assistance for those struggling 
to find employment, real reforms to curb frivolous lawsuits, and a plan 
to reduce Federal spending and lower our national debt.
  Tax relief, debt reduction, and legal reform to help create jobs--
that is a fiscally responsible plan to get our economy moving again. I 
urge the American people to visit lance.house.gov/jobs to learn more 
about this important job creation proposal.
