I Am Committed To Protecting Our Country

By Finding Waste And Abuse In Entitlement Programs, And Eliminating It, We Can Ensure That The Funds That Are Put Into These Programs Go To The People That Need Them The Most.

Our Budget Works To Reduce And Eliminate The Risk Of Attacks At Our Ports, Rails, In The Skies, Our Food Supply And Roads By Allowing For Increases In Many Of The Programs And Agencies To Help Protect These Important Areas Of Commerce And Travel.

By Reducing Our Dependence Of Foreign Oil And Increasing Alternative Energy Sources Such As Ethanol, We Can Begin To Bring Down Prices At The Pumps, Create Thousands Of New Jobs And Bring A Much Needed Boost To Our Economy.

Mr. Speaker, We Have Reached A Point In History Where Some Have Forgotten That It Is The Family, Not The Government, That Is The Fundamental Building Block Of Our Society.

As I Said A Moment Ago, There Is No Higher Priority In Our Budget, Or Certainly In The Budgets Of The Past Few Years, Than Providing For What Is Needed For The Protection And Security Of Our Country And Support Of Our Troops.
