                             FOCUS ON JOBS

  (Mr. SCALISE asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. SCALISE. Mr. Speaker, earlier this week President Obama released 
his latest version of a government takeover of health care. And as you 
look at the details of his latest plan, it is not much different than 
the previous plans that the American people have continued to reject.
  And while the American people are saying where are the jobs, and they 
want Congress to be focused on creating jobs, all that they get from 
this tone deaf liberal leadership is more government takeover, more 
taxes, and more policies that are running millions of jobs out of this 
country.
  It is time that this liberal leadership start listening to the 
American people and work with those of us who have for months and 
months been saying we need to reduce the cost of health care, we need 
to address preexisting conditions, and we need to do common sense 
medical liability reform, and we need a focus on jobs instead of more 
taxes, more runaway spending, and more policies that are running jobs 
out of this country.
