                         HOUSE BUDGET PROPOSAL

  (Mr. HILL asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. HILL. Mr. Speaker, last month, President Obama released his 
budget proposal. It, as expected, increases taxes and spending without 
balancing the budget and allows Social Security and Medicare to go 
bankrupt. The President's refusal to address the compounding national 
debt emphasizes his disinterest in being a leader.
  Fortunately, we in the House are leading. Our budget offers a stark 
contrast. We implement commonsense reforms, balance the budget, 
eliminate wasteful government spending, repeal ObamaCare in full, and 
preserve Social Security and Medicare for current beneficiaries and 
future generations.
  Our budget restores the principle of federalism--the foundation of 
our Constitution--empowering States, local communities, and the real 
drivers of opportunity and prosperity, the American people.
  I look forward to the debate this week in the House and working to 
ensure the proper balance between our national security interests and 
our long-term deficit reduction.
