                       TAX CUTS FOR MILLIONAIRES

  (Ms. SHEA-PORTER asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute.)
  Ms. SHEA-PORTER. Madam Speaker, Republicans are holding tax cuts for 
the middle class hostage as they try to extend tax cuts for 
millionaires. They say letting tax cuts for the very wealthy expire 
will hurt small businesses. It is just not true. Ninety-seven percent 
of small businesses would see no tax increase under the Democratic 
plan. If the Republicans think they are talking about small businesses, 
they are truly out of touch.
  While they stand in the way of unemployment benefits for millions of 
Americans still reeling from the crisis Wall Street and the previous 
administration created, they are doing everything they can to give huge 
checks to millionaires. This is just one more example of who the 
Republicans are really watching out for.
