                                JOBS ACT

  (Mr. BROUN of Georgia asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute.)
  Mr. BROUN of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, it's another 3-day work week for 
Congress, and there is still nothing on the agenda to spur the economy 
and to incentivize growth. Job creation remains the top concern of the 
American people. Shouldn't it be a priority of Congress as well? With 
15 million unemployed Americans, it is negligent not to prioritize job 
creation in the private sector today. Through my JOBS Act, H.R. 4100, 
we can empower small businesses by reducing their tax burden and 
provide relief to the lowest two individual income brackets.
  Mr. Speaker, I urge this body to seriously consider my legislation or 
any other bills that put people back to work and provide lasting 
solutions to the problems facing our economy.
