                     REPUBLICANS' ``NO-JOB AGENDA''

  (Mr. ELLISON asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. ELLISON. Mr. Speaker, we've now entered about the 55th day when 
the Republican majority has been in control of the House, and they've 
yet to introduce a single bill to create a single job for anyone 
anywhere.
  The Republican majority has, however, introduced cuts to our national 
budget that will take away vital programs and cut jobs--cut jobs like 
cops and nurses and teachers and things like that.
  The Republican majority doesn't seem to be interested in jobs, and 
their no-job agenda will not escape the view of the American people.
  The American people sent us all here to make sure that we have a more 
perfect Union, that we have prosperity in our land. We don't have it 
because unemployment is just too high, and the Republican majority is 
not doing a thing about it.
  It's time to get on with the business of creating jobs and get rid of 
the Republican no-job agenda.
