Unemployed and underemployed Americans cannot wait another 3 or 6 months for Congress to act. They are not concerned about committee jurisdictions. floor procedures. points of order. and other Washington practices. the people across Wisconsin and the people across this country are worried about their jobs. their families. and their ability to pay their mortgages. If Congress can pass an aid bill for Kurdish refugees in just 19 days. then it ought to be able to pass an economic aid package for Americans in less than 2 months. I want to emphasize that President Bush has set the March 24) deadline to pass a growth package thEt will create jobs and promote upward mobilitynot an income redistribution package that will destroy jobs and foster class envy. Many of the socalled middle class tax plans are not tax cuts at allbut tax increases on people who have the resources to save and invest in our economic engine.
