E-Mail I received from Speaker Boehner

July 15, 2011


Dear Mr.


Thank you for taking time to contact me regarding President Obama's request for an increase in the national debt limit. It's good to hear from you.

The failure of the "stimulus" spending binge has left us with an unsustainable debt and fewer jobs. To get out of this mess, and create a better environment for private-sector job growth, we need to cut government spending now - and hold it down in the future.

That's why House Republicans have said all along: a debt limit increase cannot pass the House without real spending cuts that are larger than the debt hike and reforms that restrain future spending (like spending caps or a Balanced Budget Amendment). And job-crushing tax hikes are off the table.

Raising taxes, or failing to stop the spending binge, will only make things worse for families and small businesses.

The House has passed a plan - The Path to Prosperity - to spur job growth and pay down our debt over time. Now we're waiting for President Obama to outline a plan of his own that can pass.

Thank you again for contacting me. Your ideas, comments, and questions help make possible my goal of leading a House of Representatives that listens and reflects the will of the American people. I hope you'll keep speaking out by:

-Visiting Speaker.gov to sign up for email updates on issues that concern you;
-Joining the conversation on Facebook.com/OfficeofSpeakerBoehner/;
-Connecting with my office on Twitter.com/SpeakerBoehner/; and
-Discussing solutions to the challenges facing our country at AmericaSpeakingOut.com.

I made a Pledge to America to focus on removing government barriers to private-sector job creation and economic growth. I also pledged to lead an effort to reform Congress and rebuild the bonds of trust between the American people and their representatives in Washington. I hope you'll stay engaged and keep me updated on your thoughts as we work to keep this pledge. To learn more about the Republican blueprint for job creation, click here.

Sincerely,

John Boehner
Speaker of the House
