                           BALANCE OUR BUDGET

  (Mr. SAM JOHNSON of Texas asked and was given permission to address 
the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. SAM JOHNSON of Texas. Madam Speaker, it is budget time again. 
This is when people in Washington outline a blueprint of how much money 
the government is going to spend on what. Sadly, some in Congress want 
to spend, spend, spend. It is a shame because the American people 
deserve better. They deserve a commonsense budget that controls 
spending and eliminates wasteful programs.
  The RSC budget balances the budget by 2011 and cuts useless programs 
like Asian elephant conservation historic whaling programs.
  It is time for Congress to take a hard look at how we spend our money 
and support the RSC budget for a better America.
