                                JOBS NOW

  (Mr. CICILLINE asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute.)
  Mr. CICILLINE. Mr. Speaker, President Obama has offered the American 
Jobs Act, a clear path forward to putting our country back to work, 
helping small businesses succeed and hire and providing tax relief for 
our workers and rebuilding America. The emphasis of the plan is 
immediate action that will preserve and create jobs now. It will put 
money into the pockets of working Americans now, and it will give 
businesses job-creating tax breaks now. It will provide a boost to the 
economy that we need now.
  Mr. Speaker, it's time for Democrats and Republicans to work together 
and with our President to put the country back to work. The American 
people literally can't afford to wait a single day more. It's time to 
pass the American Jobs Act now.
