                DEMOCRATS NEED MORE OF YOUR TAX DOLLARS

  (Ms. FOXX asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. FOXX. Madam Speaker, $6.1 trillion, that's how much money the 
Federal Government has spent in just the first 18 months of the Obama 
Presidency. Washington is spending $7 million every minute of every 
hour of every day. There is only one way to feed that kind of 
destructive habit: Washington needs more of your tax dollars.
  And that's exactly what Democrats here on Capitol Hill and in the 
White House are talking about, the largest tax increase in American 
history. And it's no surprise when this Democrat-controlled Congress is 
on the verge of a second straight year of creating a record annual 
deficit.
  Instead of working with Republicans to make the hard choices to cut 
spending, Democrats are going to keep right on with out-of-control 
spending, and they will send the American people the bill. At a time 
when American families are struggling and when nearly 15 million people 
are looking for work, Washington Democrats are poised to hit every 
single taxpayer with a tax increase to pay for their reckless spending.
  Madam Speaker, House Republicans will fight those tax increases and 
will work to stop Democrats' out-of-control spending.
