                            ENOUGH IS ENOUGH

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Chair recognizes the gentleman from 
Kansas (Mr. Marshall) for 5 minutes.
  Mr. MARSHALL. Mr. Speaker, enough. Enough.
  I finished my 16th, 17th, and 18th townhall this weekend, and 
everywhere I went across Kansas, my people told me, ``Enough of this.''
  We have had enough of the Mueller investigation.
  We have had enough on the tax return issues.
  We have had enough Russia mania.
  Mr. Speaker, it is time to move on; we have all had enough.
  There are great things that we can move on to:
  We can fix healthcare; we can secure our southern borders; we can 
overhaul our immigration system; we can come up with a nationwide 
infrastructure plan.
  Mr. Speaker, this country is doing good. Our economy is strong, wages 
are up, unemployment is down, but we can go from good to great if you 
take this stranglehold off of this Congress and let us get back to 
work.
  Mr. Speaker, I am embarrassed by the performance of the Congress this 
far.
  We came from the most productive Congress, perhaps in history, to 
maybe the least productive.
  I have only been here a short while, but I have learned that this 
little bubble we live in has a very finite amount of oxygen. And right 
now, politics is taking up all the oxygen.
  Mr. Speaker, it is time to move from politics to policy. We have all 
had enough. It is time to move on.
