                   TIME FOR THE SENATE TO GET TO WORK

  (Ms. FOXX asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Ms. FOXX. Madam Speaker, the American people are rightfully fed up. 
The Obama Presidency has meant only more power for Washington and more 
debt for our children and grandchildren, while the Obama economy 
produces only less confidence for job creators and too few jobs for 
Americans.
  When it comes to fostering job growth, the difference between House 
Republicans and Senate Democrats for more than a year now has been the 
difference between action and inaction. Following the House Republican 
Plan for America's Job Creators, the House has already passed more than 
30 bipartisan jobs bills to restore the freedom and confidence of our 
Nation's job creators to do their job. Unfortunately, 27 of these 
bipartisan jobs bills are still being ignored or blocked in the do-
nothing Democrat Senate.
  It's time for Washington Democrats to join our fight to put Americans 
back to work and get to work enacting those jobs bills.
