                     PUTTING AMERICANS BACK TO WORK

  (Mr. YODER asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. YODER. Madam Speaker, I rise today to again encourage my 
colleagues to support pro-growth economic policies that can help put 
Americans back to work.
  With over 8 percent unemployment and slow economic growth, many 
Americans are struggling to pay their bills and provide for their 
families. Unfortunately, many of the policies coming out of Washington

few years have prolonged this economic stagnation and damaged our 
recovery.
  With small businesses creating two out of every three jobs in this 
country, we need to support policies that keep business taxes down, 
eliminate costly regulations, and open up new avenues for access to 
capital. That's why I'm happy to support the JOBS Act. This bipartisan 
legislation will help new business formation, open up access to 
capital, and help new businesses create jobs.
  Madam Speaker, let's work together in bipartisan fashion on the JOBS 
Act and other legislation, and let's help put Americans back to work.
