  Mrs. CAPITO. Mr. Speaker, Americans have made their lists for the 
holidays. Drum roll, please.
  Number 10, pass the doc fix for doctors who treat Medicare patients;
  Number 9, continue the payroll tax holiday for American workers;
  Number 8, approve the Keystone pipeline in the name of creating jobs;
  Number 7, extend and reform employment benefits;
  Number 6, repayment of subsidies and reduce all fraud, waste, and 
abuse;
  Number 5, prevent the EPA from destroying jobs by onerous boiler MACT 
regulation;
  Number 4, allow businesses to expense their costly purchases;
  Number 3, include spectrum auctions for more broadband services;
  Number 2, do all of this without adding to the deficit; and
  Number 1, please create American jobs.
  To my colleagues, don't be a grinch. Please help grant America's 
holiday wishes.
  And to the President, make this your list, check it twice. America 
wants and needs jobs for the holidays.
