                          AMERICAN JOBS AGENDA

  (Mr. JOHNSON of Georgia asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. JOHNSON of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, I rise to talk about jobs today.
  The Republicans have taken us through a no-jobs winter agenda, a no-
jobs spring agenda, a no-jobs summer agenda, and now we are about to 
enter fall. Everybody is talking about jobs but they're not really 
doing anything, other than blaming the President. It's been 250 days 
since Republicans have had control of this body. Not one single jobs 
bill has passed.
  Yesterday, the President gave us a specific plan, but we've already 
heard from some colleagues on the other side of the aisle that they 
will not be in support of it. Is this a part of their no-jobs agenda 
for the fall? It looks like it. It's certainly not leadership, and it's 
not governance.
