Mr. Speaker, a few days ago, Donald Trump unveiled his so-called skinny budget for fiscal year 2026.

$163 billion for vital programs that serve our communities.

Tribal programs, housing, health care, opioid reduction, and addiction recovery programs.

To give permanent tax breaks to billionaires.

01:20
This is the GOP's plan.
01:23
This is the GOP's response.
01:26

01:29
I yield back.

This is the GOP's response.
