                          CHANGE SENATE RULES

  (Mr. PALAZZO asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. PALAZZO. Mr. Speaker, the American people are sick and tired of 
talk. They want action.
  For 3 years now, Senate Democrats have blocked votes on bills 
important to all Americans. They have blindly supported the President's 
failed policies and have shielded him from having to defend his 
policies to the American people.
  House Republicans have heard the American cry for help. We fought to 
repeat ObamaCare. We fought to stop the reckless Iranian nuclear 
agreement. Once again, we are fighting to defend the defenseless. We 
have passed budgets that will reduce our national debt, stop job-
killing regulations, provide for our national defense, and get 
Americans working again.
  Republicans control Congress. We have better solutions to the 
problems that face our Nation. It is time for the President to go on 
record for his opposition to commonsense solutions that put America 
first. This can only happen if the Senate employs the nuclear option. 
It is time to change the Senate rules and force this President and the 
Senate to work for the American people instead of against them.
