John Kline $14,294,000,000,000 - That is what our debt limit was raised to yesterday in Congress when it passed the largest one-time increase in the debt limit in our nation's history. That amounts to $46,319 per person, or $121,982 per household. Reckless... Simply reckless.

John Kline Today, House Democratic leaders are asking Congress to raise the debt ceiling and allow the federal government to go $1.9 trillion deeper into debt over the next year - which is approximately $6,000 more debt for every U.S. resident. I strongly oppose this measure, which would raise the cap on federal borrowing to $14....3 trillion and strap even greater debt on the backs of our children and grandchildren. Speaker Pelosi hopes this debt measure will be enough to keep her from needing to ask Congress to borrow even more money before the November elections.

John Kline Good morning! This morning, I will be visiting with Fox-9 anchor Tom Halden at about 9:30 a.m. on "Fox 9 Morning News" (Ch. 9).

John Kline I am walking from my office to the Chamber of the U.S. House of Representatives where the President will soon deliver his first State of the Union address. Over the last day or so I have shared with you what I would like to hear from the President. Let me know your thoughts tonight as the President offers his remarks.
John Kline A point to ponder tonight as the President explains his new-found commitment to fiscal responsibility: Repeatedly on the campaign trail, the President promised he would go "line by line" through the federal budget looking for wasteful spending. Instead, in just 12 months he has proposed a 51 percent increase in federal spending over the next decade.

John Kline The Hill reported this morning that five House Democrats - Nancy Pelosi, Steny Hoyer, Henry Waxman, Charles Rangel, and George Miller - will be representing the entire House of Representatives in closed-door meetings to finalize their government takeover of health care. Something as critical as the Pelosi-Reid health c...are bill, with its Medicare cuts and tax hikes, shouldn’t be slapped together in a hidden backroom. This bill should follow regular order and allow Republicans to express concerns and contribute sensible solutions.
