                  LEGISLATION TO HELP SMALL BUSINESSES

  (Mr. SCHAUER asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. SCHAUER. Mr. Speaker, I rise to announce new legislation I'm 
introducing to help small businesses grow and make it easier for them 
to put people to work. New jobs mean less government spending on 
unemployment and health care. New employees spend much of what they 
earn, also boosting our local economies.
  In my bill, tax credits are targeted for small business job creation. 
While we're suffering from high national unemployment, States like 
Michigan are being hit especially hard. That is why my bill gives 
bigger tax credits to employers that create jobs in high unemployment 
States like Michigan. My bill goes to the heart of our economy, helping 
small businesses, the engine of job creation in America.
