               HOUSE GOP PLAN FOR AMERICA'S JOB CREATORS

  (Ms. FOXX asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Ms. FOXX. Fostering job growth for the American people continues to 
be the number one job for House Republicans. With unemployment above 8 
percent for the past 39 months, the Obama economy continues to produce 
the Nation's worst jobless record since the Great Depression.
  By following the House Republican Plan for America's Job Creators, 
the House has passed more than 30 bipartisan jobs bills on behalf of 
the American people. Each of these bills is aimed at unleashing the 
power of our private sector to freely and confidently build, invest, 
innovate, and expand again--and put millions of Americans back to work. 
Unfortunately, the vast majority of these bipartisan House-passed jobs 
bills are being blocked or ignored in the Democrat-controlled Senate.
  The American people are tired of waiting. It is time for Democrats in 
the Senate and White House to put politics aside and to support the 
House Republican Plan for America's Job Creators.
