                        JOBS ARE BEING SHREDDED

  (Mr. TIBERI asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. TIBERI. Mr. Speaker, a hundred of my colleagues have come and 
asked, Mr. Speaker, ``Where are the jobs?'' We passed a stimulus bill 
months ago, and in Ohio, we had 33,000 jobs lost just last month. The 
jobs I see created, Mr. Speaker, are here in Washington--czars, 
commissars--not real people back in Ohio.
  Mr. Speaker, where are the jobs? We passed a bill on this floor 
creating a national energy tax which is going to cost Ohioans hundreds 
of thousands of jobs. We're debating a health care bill where small 
business owners are concerned that they're going to shed additional 
jobs at a time when we need small business owners to create more jobs.
  Mr. Speaker, Ohioans, as this chart points out, are shredding jobs in 
this administration, are shredding jobs this year. We're creating a 
record amount of deficits, record debt, higher taxes. All Americans 
want, all Ohioans want, Mr. Speaker, are jobs.
  Where are the jobs?
