                  TIME FOR A BALANCED BUDGET AMENDMENT

  (Mr. NUGENT asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. NUGENT. Mr. Speaker, 49 States do it. Counties do it. Cities do 
it. Now it's time for the Federal Government to do it--to pass a 
balanced budget amendment. It is about passing a balanced budget 
amendment and getting this Nation back on track to meet our 
obligations, our spending obligations, but also to match it with what 
we bring in and collect in taxes and revenues.
  Mr. Speaker, it's time for a balanced budget amendment.
