| Message | Mr. Speaker, Our current economic situation is fine as most people who are not in the military do have jobs. We do not believe it is necessary for the government to get involved at this time. We are willing to compromise, though we believe that this bill should remain in debate for an extended period of time so that we may work something out. Rep. Stuart Garnett (C) Minority Leader |
