PROVIDING FOR CONSIDERATION OF S.J. RES. 33, JOINT RESOLUTION RELATING 
                      TO INCREASING THE DEBT LIMIT

  Mr. MORELLE. Mr. Speaker, by direction of the Committee on Rules, I 
call up House Resolution 852 and ask for its immediate consideration.
  The Clerk read the resolution, as follows:

                              H. Res. 852

       Resolved, That upon adoption of this resolution it shall be 
     in order to consider in the House the joint resolution (S.J. 
     Res. 33) joint resolution relating to increasing the debt 
     limit. All points of order against consideration of the joint 
     resolution are waived. The joint resolution shall be 
     considered as read. All points of order against provisions in 
     the joint resolution are waived. The previous question shall 
     be considered as ordered on the joint resolution and on any 
     amendment thereto to final passage without intervening motion 
     except: (1) one hour of debate equally divided and controlled 
     by the chair and ranking minority member of the Committee on 
     Ways and Means or their respective designees; and (2) one 
     motion to commit.

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman from New York is recognized 
for 1 hour.
  Mr. MORELLE. Mr. Speaker, for the purpose of debate only, I yield the 
customary 30 minutes to the gentleman

[[Page H7809]]

from Texas (Mr. Burgess), my distinguished colleague from the Rules 
Committee, pending which I yield myself such time as I may consume. 
During consideration of this resolution, all time yielded is for the 
purpose of debate only.


                             General Leave

  Mr. MORELLE. Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent that all Members 
may have 5 legislative days in which to revise and extend their 
remarks.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentleman from New York?
  There was no objection.
  Mr. MORELLE. Mr. Speaker, today, the Rules Committee met and reported 
a rule, House Resolution 852, providing for consideration of S.J. Res. 
33, a joint resolution relating to increasing the debt limit, under a 
closed rule. The rule provides for 1 hour of debate equally divided and 
controlled by the chair and ranking member of the Committee on Ways and 
Means, or their designees, and provides one motion to commit.
  Mr. Speaker, I rise today to urge my colleagues to adopt the rule and 
support lifting the Nation's debt ceiling.
  Failing to lift the debt ceiling and defaulting on our debt is not an 
option. If we do not act, a default could result in the loss of 
millions of jobs and $15 trillion in household wealth, according to 
nonpartisan Moody's Analytics economist Mark Zandi. Mr. Zandi has 
characterized a default as ``financial Armageddon,'' and JPMorgan Chase 
CEO Jamie Dimon has gone even further, stating that a default ``could 
cause an immediate, literally cascading catastrophe of unbelievable 
proportions and damage America for 100 years.''
  Earlier this year, a bipartisan group of former Treasury Secretaries 
wrote to Congress arguing that protecting U.S. creditworthiness is a 
``sacrosanct responsibility.'' I couldn't agree more.
  Let's be clear about what we are talking about here today. The debt 
limit is the total amount of money that the United States Government is 
authorized to borrow to meet its existing legal obligations, including 
Social Security and Medicare benefits, payments to veterans and 
servicemembers, and tax refunds. The debt limit does not authorize any 
new spending; it simply allows the government to pay its bills for 
obligations it has already incurred.
  Mr. Speaker, much of this debt was accrued on a bipartisan basis. It 
includes emergency measures to combat the pandemic and increase defense 
spending. While many on the other side of the aisle have tried to tie 
raising the debt ceiling to our efforts to pass the President's agenda, 
it should be noted that 97 percent of the total national debt accrued 
before President Biden even took office.
  Since 1960, Congress has acted 78 times to address the debt limit, 49 
times under Republican Presidents and 29 times under Democratic 
Presidents. In the last 10 years, the debt limit has been addressed 
seven times on a bipartisan basis, including three times under the last 
administration, during which, I would like to remind my Republican 
colleagues, $7.8 trillion of the total national debt was incurred.
  Arguments about raising the debt ceiling have become nonsensical. In 
the current discourse, both sides of the aisle have agreed to spend 
Federal dollars on important programs, but only one side of the aisle 
believes that we should actually fulfill our obligations to pay our 
creditors for those very same programs.
  Mr. Speaker, if we choose not to honor our obligations to creditors, 
what message does that send to the American people and, frankly, the 
rest of the world? Everyday Americans pay their bills and honor their 
commitments. Why shouldn't we do the same?
  Mr. Speaker, it is frankly outrageous to hold the position that we 
shouldn't be held to the same standard as families who work hard to 
find a way to pay their bills every day.
  I urge my colleagues to support the rule and the underlying 
legislation to raise our Nation's debt ceiling, ensuring that America 
can continue to pay its bills and honor its obligations.
  Mr. Speaker, I reserve the balance of my time.
  Mr. BURGESS. Mr. Speaker, I thank Representative Morelle for yielding 
me the customary 30 minutes, and I yield myself such time as I may 
consume.
  Mr. Speaker, this rule provides for consideration of S.J. Res. 33, a 
bill to raise the debt ceiling by $2.5 trillion.
  The Federal debt limit began over 100 years ago, in 1917, and it has 
been required to be raised 100 times since then.
  The problem isn't whether we should increase our debt limit; it is 
that we have to issue debt at all. Debts are issued to cover the 
difference between what you make and what you spend. When you spend 
more than you make, you have to find a way to pay for the spending.
  We are in the middle of a spending spree. For the last 11 months, 
well over $1 trillion in taxpayer money was spent largely on partisan 
priorities, and more likely coming if the Democrats manage to get a 
final agreement on the Build Back Better Act or perhaps what more aptly 
might be described as a socialist spending scam.
  On December 10, the Congressional Budget Office published an estimate 
of the Build Back Better Act, confirming the bill's true cost to be 
almost $5 trillion, $4.9 trillion, while adding $3 trillion in new 
debt.
  Democrats claim the bill is paid for, but that is simply not true. 
Now, it is confirmed by independent analysis. Instead of zero dollars, 
the bill will create a carve-out for deducting State and local taxes 
that will add almost $250 billion to the deficit.

                              {time}  2110

  It will protect so-called green companies from a new minimum tax and 
provide $12,500 tax credits for purchasing an electric vehicle so long 
as that vehicle is made using union labor.
  The bill will also provide billions in benefits to the wealthy 
through the expanded child tax credit that will add over $1.5 trillion 
to the deficit if this policy is made permanent, and that is, of 
course, what is being pushed for in the Build Back Better Act.
  Additionally, the $1 trillion infrastructure bill that the Democrats 
just ushered into law requires a $118 billion transfer from Treasury to 
the highway trust fund, which Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen has 
stated will occur tomorrow, December 15.
  Republicans will not support raising the debt limit while Democrats 
push through trillions of dollars for purely partisan political 
spending, thereby depleting our Treasury not just for today but for 
generations to come.
  Unfortunately, all this spending will only exacerbate the very high 
rate of inflation, inflation which has been crippling so many Americans 
and causing so much suffering in the last 11 months.
  According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, in November, the 
Consumer Price Index rose by 0.8 percent, but 6.8 percent over the last 
12 months. The most significant increase was in the energy sector, 
while prices went up for gas, food, shelter, and vehicles, among other 
things.
  Here is the real bad news: We have only seen the tip of the iceberg 
when it comes to inflation. Likely, the inflation rates by March are 
going to be absolutely astonishing. And that is what happens when you 
push so many dollars out into an economy that has no way to absorb 
them.
  Sure, 2 years ago we all voted for the CARES Act, a trillion dollars 
to rescue the country from the coronavirus. And then there was 
additional coronavirus relief passed in December. And then almost 
immediately another coronavirus bill in February, and then the 
transportation bill in September, and now the Build Back Better Act.
  The economy simply cannot absorb those dollars that the Federal 
Government is pushing out. They have got no place to go except to 
create more and more inflation. And who does inflation hurt? It hurts 
those people at the lower end of the income scale.
  Despite repeated encouragement from the Committee on the Budget 
Ranking Member Jason Smith and Senator McConnell, Democrats have 
refused to raise the debt ceiling through reconciliation, which of 
course is their right to do. They have majorities in both the House and 
the Senate.
  They have had ample time to do this, but they simply would not act. 
So, instead, a temporary extension that would only last a couple of 
months happened earlier this year. And now, once again, in the middle 
of the night,

[[Page H7810]]

we are having to vote on a bill to increase the national debt in order 
to pay for Democrats' social spending and infrastructure policies.
  Democrats claim that raising the debt limit has always been 
bipartisan. But, you know, here is just a little bit of history: In 
1993, the Democrats used reconciliation to raise the debt limit with a 
party-line vote in the omnibus budget reconciliation bill.
  In 2010, the Democrats again raised the debt limit by $1.9 trillion 
with a purely party-line vote. Republicans voted in opposition out of 
concern for the then-Obama administration's amount of spending that was 
occurring. A New York Times article reporting on the vote said, ``They 
wanted to raise the ceiling enough to avoid putting their Members 
through another such vote before the midterm elections.''
  Do you kind of get the sense that history is repeating itself 
tonight?
  Financial success and financial longevity begins years before it is 
realized. We certainly cannot be reckless and feckless with the 
Nation's future now. Under no argument is this plan fiscally 
responsible. Under no fantasy is the Build Back Better Act paid for.
  We have to remember to be beneficial to the American people, we have 
to be demonstrative of representative government. We should not be 
raising the debt limit to allow for continuation of partisan social 
spending.
  Mr. Speaker, I urge opposition to the rule, and I reserve the balance 
of my time.
  Mr. MORELLE. Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume.
  Those who know me know I am not a very sophisticated guy, and they 
also know I am not a financial wizard; but I will tell you this: I 
would love to have a philosophical debate, maybe sit down, have a cup 
of coffee with the distinguished gentleman from Texas, and we might 
even find some common ground about what our practices ought to be 
relative to spending and taxing and all those things.
  But to be clear, none of what Dr. Burgess just talked about has 
anything to do with what we are doing here today. Ninety-seven percent 
of the debt that we have incurred as a Nation happened before Joe Biden 
took office.
  As for Build Back Better, which many on our side of the aisle are 
working to try to enact, that is something that is prospective. We are 
talking tonight about paying the bills of things that we have already 
agreed to pay for. It has absolutely nothing to do with it.
  I appreciate the distinguished gentleman because he is trying to 
bring into this debate many things which have no relevance here, 
apparently to make a better case, but the truth is we have a decision 
before us that is a serious one. It not only affects the 
creditworthiness of the United States, but it affects global markets. 
This would be, as I indicated earlier, catastrophic. This is Armageddon 
if it doesn't happen.
  Just to note, in 2016, prior to the election of the previous 
administration, the national debt was $19.5 trillion or 105 percent of 
GDP. In 2020, when the administration's time had run its course, the 
debt had risen to $27.7 trillion or 129 percent of GDP, a $7.8 trillion 
increase. Included in that was a $1.9 trillion tax cut, which hasn't 
paid for itself, which has added dramatically to the debt. But the debt 
has been accumulated during decades of real need by the American 
public.

  So we could have a conversation; and, frankly, the discussion about 
spending takes place in the Appropriations Committee, it takes place in 
the Budget Committee, taxation takes place in the Ways and Means 
Committee. What we are doing now is making a decision to pay our bills. 
Fundamentally, bottom line. It doesn't require a whole lot of 
sophistication or talk about financial markets. It is clearly a simple 
question, are we going to pay for the things that we have agreed to 
buy, and that is it. It is as simple as can be.
  Every household in America makes those decisions. You get something, 
you get a bill in the mail, you pay for it. Even if you have buyer's 
remorse, even if your wife says to you that fine exercise thing that 
you bought, which is going to be the most expensive coat hanger in the 
house because you are not going to use it, we still pay for it because 
it is in the house, and we bought it. That is as simple as it can 
possibly be.
  Mr. Speaker, I reserve the balance of my time.
  Mr. BURGESS. Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume.
  Mr. Speaker, if we defeat the previous question, Republicans will 
amend the rule to immediately consider an amendment to the Democrats' 
fiscal year 2022 budget resolution to replace the socialist $5 trillion 
tax-and-spend reconciliation instructions with new instructions for 
authorizing committees to produce legislation to reduce the deficit to 
combat runaway inflation currently fueling the highest price spike in 
40 years and to get Americans back to work.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent to insert the text of this 
amendment into the Record, along with extraneous material, immediately 
prior to the vote on the previous question.
  Mr. Speaker, I yield 4 minutes to the gentleman from Missouri (Mr. 
Smith), the ranking member of the Budget Committee, to explain the 
amendment.
  Mr. SMITH of Missouri. Mr. Speaker, if we defeat the previous 
question, we will consider an amendment to the rule to replace the 
socialist $5 trillion tax-and-spend reconciliation instructions from 
the fiscal year 2022 budget with a new call for committees to draft 
legislation to reduce the deficit, to combat runaway inflation and help 
get Americans back to work.
  This country has been through a lot in the past year under one-party 
rule by the Washington Democrats and President Biden.
  We have an inflation crisis; we have an energy crisis; we have a 
border crisis; and we have a supply chain crisis. Contributing to it 
all is a leadership crisis in the Oval Office.
  With all of these problems, you would think Democrats would finish 
the year addressing just one--just one--of those issues.
  But instead, Mr. Speaker, we are here on the last day of session for 
the year, and Democrats have chosen to spend this valuable time 
attacking former President Trump and his staff, attacking members of 
the Republican Conference, and they have even found room to include a 
$2.5 trillion increase to the debt ceiling.

                              {time}  2120

  In fact, since Speaker Pelosi took the gavel in the House in 2019, 
House Democrats have added more than $9 trillion--House Democrats since 
2019 have added more than $9 trillion to the national debt, which is 
more than the combined deficits under all 72 years that Republicans 
have ever been in the majority.
  The American people, Mr. Speaker, they deserve a Congress that is 
focused on the problems that they are facing in their everyday lives; a 
Congress that is delivering on policies to stop the runaway rise in 
prices, a problem that has now reached a 40-year high.
  Even President Biden's budget in May predicted inflation at 2 
percent, Mr. Speaker. We are now at over 7 percent, the highest 
inflation in 40 years.
  The White House administration says that inflation is a high-class 
problem, Mr. Speaker. I will tell you, the people across America 
believe it is a real problem. They care about the prices in the grocery 
store. They don't care about the prices in the stock market.
  But you know what, House Democrats argue and say inflation is 
transitory, yet now they are finally agreeing that these rising costs 
in prices are actually having a real impact.
  We could be working on legislation to actually help American families 
by reducing the cost of energy during the winter.
  To do that, we need to get rid of the reconciliation instructions in 
the Democrats' budget, the same reconciliation plan that has paralyzed 
Washington for months as Democrats fought over how to spend $5 
trillion.
  Even the Congressional Budget Office on Friday confirmed that what 
passed out of this Chamber a few weeks ago does not cost zero. It cost 
$5 trillion.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The time of the gentleman has expired.
  Mr. BURGESS. Mr. Speaker, I yield the gentleman an additional 2 
minutes.
  Mr. SMITH of Missouri. Mr. Speaker, the official congressional 
scorekeepers said on Friday that the build back broke bill that passed 
out of here a couple weeks ago did not cost $1.5 trillion, did not cost 
$2 trillion, but cost $5

[[Page H7811]]

trillion. But this administration will say it costs zero.
  The American people see right through it. They see right through this 
mess. And they know one thing. They know that this is nothing but 
hogwash. It is hogwash, Mr. Speaker. And we should instead replace all 
of these reconciliation instructions to bring forward a plan to reduce 
the deficit and stop the inflation that is destroying family budgets.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask all my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to 
defeat the previous question, so that we can actually work on 
legislation to help American families at the supermarket, to help 
combat a price spike that is pushing working families to the brink and 
to actually provide some real solutions this week on behalf of the 
American people whom we represent in this body.
  Mr. MORELLE. Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume.
  I appreciate Mr. Smith's enthusiasm and exuberance. The arguments 
that folks would make that House Democrats are responsible for the 
spending of the Trump administration and the Trump White House, that 
argument is, frankly, absurd and happened during a global pandemic, so 
we had much work to do to spare the American public.
  But I am going to do this: Moved by the spirit of the season, I am 
going bestow a gift on Members, and I am not going to rebut point by 
point but rather reserve the balance of my time and allow my colleague 
to speak.
  Mr. BURGESS. Mr. Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from 
Texas (Mr. Fallon).
  Mr. FALLON. Mr. Speaker, if our friends across the aisle are 
concerned about paying our bills and they are alarmed by the debt, then 
I think we should all get together, all 435 Members, and talk about 
fiscal responsibility and pass a balanced budget amendment. That is the 
way forward and to avert this financial catastrophe that we are 
flirting with.
  Let's be very candid, Mr. Speaker, about what we are doing here. 
Let's be candid with the American people about what we are doing here 
in this Chamber tonight.
  This is about a debt ceiling limit increase to ram through more 
wasteful and reckless spending.
  We are renovating our house in Texas, and I found an old political 
mailer, a 9-year-old mailer; and I was outraged about the fact that we 
had a $14 trillion debt. Today that is $29 trillion.
  It is not about placing blame on Republicans or Democrats, it is 
about recognizing we have an issue that is going to destroy this 
country if we don't address it. And we continue to kick the can down 
the road and land that can on the backs of future generations like my 
15-year-old son and my 12-year-old son.
  There are failed states in this world. Here is a $100 trillion bill 
from the Nation of Zimbabwe. It is worth maybe 40 cents. It is 
essentially worthless. That could be what we end up with if we don't 
recognize the fact that at the local level cities can't spend more than 
they take in, counties can't, even States can't. So why does the 
Federal Government get to? Because we own a printing press down the 
street?
  Let's be responsible. Let's work together. This Chamber 20-plus years 
ago passed a balanced budget amendment, if I am not mistaken, and it 
failed in the Senate. It is time to do the right thing, the courageous 
thing, the American thing, and pass a balanced budget amendment.
  Mr. MORELLE. Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume.
  I wonder, when the gentleman finished his home's renovations if he 
paid the contractor or refused to pay because he might be tempted to do 
renovations in the future.
  Mr. Speaker, I reserve the balance of my time.
  Mr. BURGESS. Mr. Speaker, I yield myself the balance of my time.
  Mr. Speaker, just before I close, I do want to take a moment and 
acknowledge that it was 1 year ago last night that the FedEx trucks 
departed from Kalamazoo, Michigan, carrying the very first doses of 
what we now know as the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine.

  And when you stop and reflect upon what was accomplished between the 
middle of May and the middle of December of 2020, it truly was a 
startling scientific accomplishment; not one, not two, but three 
vaccines.
  We told ourselves at the beginning of the Operation Warp Speed 
process that if we got 40 to 45 percent effectiveness, it would be a 
victory, and those vaccines delivered in excess of 90 percent. People 
might quibble and say, well, you have to get a booster or you have to 
get an additional shot. We are so fortunate to have those tools to be 
able to combat this illness.
  We are by no means through, but then even just last week the 
additional news that now an oral medication, the so-called Tamiflu for 
coronavirus, is now available, which I submit is going to change with 
the application of additional therapeutics, is really going to change 
the equation, and I just wanted to take a minute and reflect on that.
  We are, again, just one day past the 1-year anniversary of Kalamazoo, 
Michigan, delivering that vaccine to the world.
  Otherwise in closing to this argument, raising the debt ceiling to 
$2.5 trillion does seem a tad irresponsible in the middle of 
unprecedented spending by House Democrats. You have got control of the 
White House, you have got control of the Senate, you have got control 
of the House, and you haven't passed a single appropriations bill.
  How are we supposed to run our business if we will not do our normal 
work and pass a budget and pass the 12 appropriations bills?

                              {time}  2130

  The Federal Government is currently operating under the second 
continuing resolution of this fiscal year. One-third of Federal 
spending is done through discretionary appropriations. When you stop to 
think about it, that is really not much. That means two-thirds comes 
through on autopilot. But the amount that we actually tell ourselves we 
are going to control, the one-third of the Federal budget, we haven't 
done our work.
  Now, we are talking about raising the debt limit to pay for trillions 
of dollars in spending, and the Democrats won't even fund the basic 
functions of government through regular appropriations. That actually 
comes at a cost. It is very difficult to get a phone call answered by a 
Federal agency, by the head of a Federal agency, by a Cabinet Secretary 
because we no longer make the appropriations.
  These folks are relatively new on the job, within the last year. They 
have no history of knowing that they have to come to Congress to get 
their appropriations bills passed. So as a consequence, they basically 
ignore the Congress.
  Democrats are desperate to push through as much social spending as 
they can because the balance of power, quite likely, is getting ready 
to change. Why else would they be so reckless in such a short amount of 
time with Americans' hard-earned taxpayer dollars? We cannot push 
inflation higher by raising the debt limit to allow for trillions in 
additional partisan spending.
  Mr. Speaker, here is the real problem that is going to lead to that 
balance of power shift. It is inflation that is at levels that have not 
been seen since the Carter administration.
  Again, my prediction is, over the next 6 months, this is going to 
become a great deal worse. It will be unsustainable for most American 
families who live paycheck to paycheck. Then on top of that, it is a 
spending level that is driving that inflation level. And we are doing 
nothing, nothing to put the brakes on that.
  Mr. Speaker, again, I urge a ``no'' vote on the previous question so 
we can get to the talk for fiscal sanity and ``no'' on the underlying 
measure, and I yield back the balance of my time.
  Mr. MORELLE. Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume.
  First, let me echo Dr. Burgess' comments about the vaccine. I want to 
encourage every American to get that vaccine. We still have far too 
many people who have chosen not to get the vaccine and the third dose, 
for those who are eligible, under the messenger RNA, to do a third 
shot. But we encourage every single American to do it, and I want to 
make sure to repeat that. I join with my colleague in thanking those 
who made that possible.
  Mr. Speaker, I also thank all of my colleagues for their work in 
support of the rule before us today. As I mentioned earlier, protecting 
U.S. creditworthiness is a sacred responsibility, and it would be an 
abdication of that

[[Page H7812]]

sacred responsibility to fail to address the debt limit and ensure that 
the United States Government pays its bills.
  We have heard a lot of rhetoric today, but we all know that the 
measure before us today is not about new spending. No matter how many 
times it is said, it is not about new spending.
  We are acting today to ensure that America can pay its obligations 
that we have already agreed to incur. Pretending otherwise is a 
disservice to the American people.
  Mr. Speaker, I urge a ``yes'' vote on the rule and the previous 
question.
  The material previously referred to by Mr. Burgess is as follows:

                   Amendment to House Resolution 852

       At the end of the resolution, add the following:
       Sec. 2. The provisions of Senate Concurrent Resolution 14 
     shall continue to have force and effect for all purposes in 
     the House, except with the following revisions:
       (1) In title II--
       (A) strike ``increase'' in each place it appears and insert 
     ``decrease'';
       (B) strike ``by not more than'' in each place it appears 
     and insert ``by at least'';
       (C) strike each dollar amount and insert ``$,100,000,000''; 
     and
       (D) strike ``September 15, 2021,'' in each place it appears 
     and insert ``December 31, 2021,''.
       (2) By adding at the end the following:

       TITLE V--POLICY STATEMENT ON INFLATION AND RECONCILIATION

     SEC. 501. POLICY STATEMENT ON INFLATION AND RECONCILIATION.

       (a) Findings.--The House finds the following as it relates 
     to the inflationary impact of the policies of the Democrat-
     controlled Congress and Biden Administration:
       (1) President Biden's Fiscal Year 2022 budget request 
     assumed inflation, under the Administration's policies, would 
     amount to two percent in 2021, 2022, and over the next 
     decade.
       (2) Actual inflation under the Administration's policies 
     has totaled more than three times these estimates.
       (3) Since Joe Biden took office, inflation has increased at 
     an annualized rate of more than seven percent, the highest 
     level in 40 years.
       (A) Gasoline prices have increased by 58 percent on an 
     annualized basis.
       (B) Household energy prices have increased by 13 percent on 
     an annualized basis.
       (C) Meat prices have increased by 14 percent on an 
     annualized basis.
       (D) According to the Congressional Budget Office, 
     `Inflation has eroded the purchasing power of families'.
       (4) There is a clear link between the Democrats' reckless 
     out-of-control deficit spending and the inflation crisis 
     Americans currently face. After one year of Democrat control, 
     House Democrats have passed $7.5 trillion in new spending--
     more than the Federal Government has ever spent in any year 
     in American history--$3 trillion of which has been enacted. 
     This amounts to nearly $60,000 per American household. This 
     includes Public Law 117-2, Public Law 117-58, and as 
     confirmed by the Congressional Budget Office, the $5 trillion
