[Congressional Record (Bound Edition), Volume 156 (2010), Part 15] [House] [Page 23573] [From the U.S. Government Publishing Office, www.gpo.gov]{time} 1120 CONTINUING RECORD OF SUCCESSFUL JOB CREATION (Mr. CARSON of Indiana asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute.) Mr. CARSON of Indiana. Madam Speaker, I rise to express my hope that the 112th Congress will continue this Congress' record of successful job creation. We have taken the necessary steps during this, the most productive Congress in years, to pass a long list of important legislation. From middle class tax relief to the small business jobs initiatives, to teacher and health care jobs, to programs helping to keep Americans in their homes, the 111th Congress has succeeded in moving the American people's agenda forward. We have already created millions of jobs and spurred 11 months of private-sector job growth. But this recession cannot be corrected overnight. Next year, we must all focus on building the next generation of workers, increasing access to quality education, remaining competitive in the global marketplace and reducing the deficit. Together, we must all continue moving our country forward. I look forward to working with my colleagues on both sides of the aisle in the next Congress. Thank you, God bless, happy holidays, and happy new year. ____________________
