  Mr. COFFMAN of Colorado. Madam Speaker, today our national debt is 
$12,308,886,504,801.94.
  On January 6th, 2009, the start of the 111th Congress, the national 
debt was $10,638,425,746,293.80.
  This means the national debt has increased by $1,670,460,758,508.14 
so far this Congress.
  Yesterday the Congressional Budget Office released their Budget and 
Economic Outlook: Fiscal Years 2010-2020. They estimate a deficit of 
$1.3 trillion for fiscal year 2010. This debt and its interest payments 
we are passing to our children and all future Americans.
