Madam Speaker, I rise today to\nimplore the House GOP leadership to address the looming fiscal cliff.\nWe have only a few hours left, and we owe it to the American people to\nfind a solution, pass legislation, and send it to the President for his\nsignature tonight.\n  There is too much at stake to let this critical situation devolve\ninto the same politics as usual that we have seen throughout this\nCongress. The consequences of failure or inaction are dire. According\nto the Congressional Budget Office, going over the cliff would raise\nthe unemployment rate from 7.9 to 9.1 percent in 2013. We would also\nsee devastating cuts to programs that pay for education, food\ninspection, and air travel safety, nearing $55 billion.\n  Madam Speaker, there is no more time, and the American people are\ndepending on us for a solution to avoid this fiscal cliff.\n\n                          ____________________"]], "columns": ["granule_id", "date", "congress", "session", "volume", "issue", "title", "chamber", "granule_class", "sub_granule_class", "page_start", "page_end", "speakers", "bills", "citation", "full_text"], "primary_keys": ["granule_id"], "primary_key_values": ["CREC-2012-12-31-pt1-PgH7477-2"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 63.468683045357466, "source": "Federal Register API & Regulations.gov API", "source_url": "https://www.federalregister.gov/developers/api/v1", "license": "Public Domain (U.S. Government data)", "license_url": "https://www.regulations.gov/faq"}
