                           MAKE IT IN AMERICA

  (Ms. HOCHUL asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. HOCHUL. Mr. Speaker, this summer I heard one message over and 
over as I visited my district: We need to create a jobs program to get 
our people back to work.
  I was sent to Washington to work with anybody and everybody who's 
willing to put aside the partisan bickering and get the job done for 
Americans. Yet we wasted a tremendous amount of time this summer 
fighting over the debt ceiling and issues that had nothing to do with 
creating jobs in this country. Starting today, let's get back to work.
  I've got to tell you, folks, I was also very offended when I was at 
an Akron ``Congress on Your Corner,'' when a Marine held up a cap that 
said ``United States Marine Corps'' on the top and it was made in 
China. I've got an amazing company right back in my district, New Era 
Cap, that could have made that.
  Let's get people back to work working in America. Make it in America. 
Let's get the job done.
