Questions?
00:01
Thank you, Mr. Chair.
00:02
Leader, the bill that the Senate is sending back is far more conservative than the bill that House Republicans passed before Memorial Day.
00:11
What's your reaction to some of the provisions?
00:14
You already disliked them in the House version.
00:17
What's your reaction to the bill becoming more conservative as it returns back to the House for you all to try to defend against it?
00:23
Why would any so-called traditional Republican, particularly those who are in swing seats all across America,
00:34
vote for a bill that will aggressively and actively hurt their constituents?
00:41
Senate Republican bill that's been sent back over to the House doesn't make anything better
00:52
in an already flawed bill that emerged in late May from the House of Representatives
00:59
and limped over to the Senate by a single vote.
01:02
Why would anyone who claims to be concerned about protecting their constituents from these devastating Medicaid and health care cuts
01:12
vote for Donald Trump's one big, ugly bill?
01:16
It's perplexing, and we're going to make this case strongly before the Rules Committee
01:22
and on the floor of the House of Representatives.
