i applaud congressman tom mcclintock, my dear friend from california, and our great young chairman from michigan, dave camp. chairman of the ways and means committee, each of them bring their work product to the floor today as well as many of our other colleagues, such as my rules committee member, the young man from orlando, florida, dan webster, who brought forth ideas that would help shape, not only the legislation we have today but the desire of the republican conference to make sure we continue to talk about the issues and problems that we see before they become a crisis, before they become something that is unworkable and rather to share our great ideas now. so for the timeless work on this issue, i thank all three of them for working on this bill today. i encourage my colleagues to vote yes. i encourage them to vote yes on the rule. i encourage them to be thoughtful and truthful about the legislation, and i reserve he balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman reserves the balance of his time. the gentlelady from new york, ms. slaughter, is recognized. ms. slaught

mcclintock: thank you, madam speaker. i thank the gentleman for yielding. hoped that amid all the controversies that grip congress, certainly we should at least be able to agree that the full faith and credit of the united states should not hang in the balance every time there is a fiscal controversy in washington. i want to thank chairman camp and his ways and means committee for he revisions that make the solution much simpler an more practical than the original draft. madam speaker, this bill simply guarantees that the sovereign debt of the united states government will be paid in full and on time under any circumstances. most states have had similar provisions to guarantee their debt and their laws and constitutions for again racials -- generations. last year in testimony to the senate, ben bernanke praised the state provisions for maintaining confidence in their bonds. he told our house budget committee that a similar measure at the federal level would help to protect us against the sovereign default, which he called a very high priority. and yet this

mcclintock:, is foked for three minutes. mr. mcclintock: this pays china first, that's the constant refrain we're hearing. let me remind them, china holds about 10% of our debt. americans hold more than half of it. and all of our spending from this government depends on maintaining our credit. that means whoever is loaning us money, whether china or tim buck tuesday, whether it's -- tim buck too, whether it's the teamsters, or the child's bond they've goten for their birthday, we're borrowing over a quarter what we spend. if we cannot borrow, if the credit markets is ever compromised, this whole house of cards collapses around us, a house of cards constructed by this administration's profligate spending. we have a strain that has never been borne before. this bill says we should at least reinforce that credit with exactly the same guarantees that most of our states have successfully employed for generations and that i would remind my friend from california, california has had in its constitution for over 100 years. i yield back.

mcclintock, for five minutes. mr. mcclintock: thank you, mr. speaker. amidst all the controversies gripping the congress, certainly we should at least all be able to agree that the full faith and credit of the united states, the ry trust that the public practices when it loans money to the government should not hang in the balance every time there is a fiscal debate in washington. this week the house is expected to consider h.r. 807, to allow a temporary exception to the debt limit solely to assure that the full payment of principal and interest is made on the debt in the event of an impasse in washington. that should make perfect sense. as a practical matter a family that's depending on its credit cards to pay its bills, it better make sure to pay the credit card bills first. the executive branch already has considerable powers to protect the nation's credit, but the administration hasn't always acknowledged it. the 14th amendment to the constitution place places the validity of the public debt beyond he question. the government accounting office has c

mcclintock: mr. speaker, ever since the arab oil embargos of the 1970's that ravaged our economy and produced mile-long lines around gas stations, an avowed goal of our nation has been to reduce our reliance on middle eastern oil. well, in addition to the thousands of jobs and billions of dollars of economic activity, the keystone pipeline will bring up to 830,000 barrels of canadian crude oil a day into the american market. about half of what we currently import from the middle east. that bears repeating. the keystone pipeline could cut our reliance on middle eastern oil by half, all by itself. the left makes much of the fact that our markets are international and some of that oil might enter that market. that's possible but i think it is far more likely that it will push middle eastern oil out of the american market. the fine point is this, in the next international crisis, which -- would you rather rely on canada or iraq to meet our etroleum needs? the chair: the gentleman from new jersey. mr. hol

congressman mcclintock's full faith and credit act. i'm proud to be a co-sponsor of the bill because this bill clearly takes default off the table. people say why is this even an issue. unfortunately it's an issue because the only people in town that's been threatening default is president obama and liberals in congress. and you heard some of the speakers against this bill today talking about the threat of default. what's so good about this bill is it takes default off the table. it takes away their ability to default on our nation's debt. in fact, president obama, in the last debt ceiling negotiation almost two years ago, was the one running around the country threatening to default on our credit. so much so that it scared the markets, it hurt our economy and in fact it's one of the things that led to a downgrade. the first time in our nation's history that our credit rating was downgraded, because the problem that gets us to the debt ceiling is that washington has a spending problem. it's spending that continues to force us to hit th

mcclintock, for five minutes. onemcclintock: mr. speaker, of the most disturbing aspects of the unfolding scandal involving the misuse of the i.r.s. is what can only be described as an insatiable appetite for names, names, and more names. conservative groups and only conservative groups seeking to organize under section 501 were subjected to pages of intrusive and irrelevant questions, but with a common theme. give us the names. give us the names of your volunteers. give us the names of your donors and family members and business associates. give us the names of speakers and audience participants at your meetings. one man applying to educate teenagers in constitutional principles, was told to turn over the names of his students. and he told a reporter, can you imagine my responsibility to parents if i disclose the names of their children to the i.r.s.? nor was this tactic limited to new applications. the venerable leadership institute, which has been schooling young people and constitutional principles for 40 years, was put through

mcclintock: there is a name for them now, 29ers.bamacare was sold on three claims all of which were false. that it would save people money. in fact it's producing quickly increases in health plan costs. it would be good for the economy. in fact, the c.b.o. estimates it will cost the economy a net loss of 800,000 jobs. if you like your plan you can keep it. many are finding not only is that a lie, but they can't keep their jobs, either. madam speaker, let's pull the plug on this before it wrecks our health care and our jobs. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman yields back. for what purpose does the the gentlewoman from ohio seek recognition? >> unanimous consent to address the house for one minute. revise and extend my remarks. the speaker pro tempore: without objection, the gentlewoman is recognized for one minute. ms. kaptur: just this past sunday our nation celebrated mother's day. a day that honors the mothers of our republic. in march, we observed women's history month, honoring the progress towards full equality of over half

mcclintock: thank you, madam speaker. just a week after the president extoled the benign virtues of big government and told university students to ignore those who warn of its dangers, americans woke up to headlines that this government has been targeting groups and individuals that it doesn't like for intimidation and harassment. i appreciate the president's sudden interest in getting to the bottom of this, but i must remind the house that more than a year ago i and other members rose on this floor to warn of these tactics directed at tea party groups by the i.r.s. at the time the administration responded by saying this was just a natural backlog. well, we now know that was a deliberate and premeditated lie. it now appears that nearly 500 conservative groups were subjected to invasive review and intimidation. the i.r.s. demanded the names of every participant at every meeting these groups held for over years, transcripts of every speech given at these meetings, what positions they've taken on issues, the names of their v
