         IT'S TIME TO END THE ONE-PARTY MONOPOLY IN WASHINGTON

  (Mr. SMITH of Texas asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. SMITH of Texas. Madam Speaker, 20 million people are out of work 
or have given up looking for work. Contrary to history and common 
sense, the Democratic Party actually thinks that raising taxes is going 
to create jobs.
  The national debt has set a new record, but congressional Democrats 
still want to spend more, yet they won't offer a budget this year to 
tell the American people how they want to spend their money. That's 
disrespectful of hardworking Americans.
  How bad does it have to get before voters say we've had enough? 
America's values, America's economy, and America's greatness are 
threatened. It's time to end the one-party monopoly in Washington.
