                              JOB CREATION

  (Mr. KLEIN of Florida asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. KLEIN of Florida. Mr. Speaker, creating jobs in south Florida is 
one of my top priorities in these challenging economic times. We must 
find ways to create good jobs in our community and ensure that our 
small businesses are growing and expanding in order to provide 
opportunities for work in our local neighborhoods.
  There are great success stories that we can build on. One example is 
TBC Corporation, which is located in my district in Palm Beach Gardens, 
Florida.
  After working closely with the Business Development Board of Palm 
Beach County, TBC, a leading national supplier and retailer of auto 
tires, will expand their headquarters and data center to create 50 new, 
high-quality jobs in our community.
  Congratulations to the management of TBC. These are the business 
models we must support and encourage, and I look forward to working 
with other local businesses to continue to create good jobs in south 
Florida.
