                           LEGISLATIVE AGENDA

  (Ms. TITUS asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Ms. TITUS. Mr. Speaker, extra, extra, read all about it. The 
Republicans have released their new agenda for the spring.
  Well, let's just take a look at what their legislative priorities are 
for the months ahead.
  Unemployment insurance extension? No.
  Equal pay for equal work for women? No.
  Increase in the minimum wage? No.
  Comprehensive immigration reform? No.
  In short, their plan offers no investment in infrastructure and 
education, no attempt to create jobs, and no proposal to help people 
achieve the American Dream.
  They can claim to be like Thomas Jefferson, but this plan reflects 
nothing that I have ever read about Thomas Jefferson.
  So let's honor and value hard work by setting a real agenda--a new 
agenda that truly gives everyone a chance at the American Dream.
