00:00
Hey everybody, I guess you want a progress report?
00:02
I don't know.
00:03
Do you have the vote, sir?
00:04
We are working through everybody's issues and making sure that we can secure this vote.
00:11
I feel very positive about the progress.
00:13
We've had lots of great conversations.
00:14
I've met with individuals and groups all day long, as has the president, who's fully engaged
00:20
as well, trying to convince everybody this is the very best product that we can produce.
00:25
So, I feel good about where we are and where we're headed, and stay tuned.
00:30
There's more conversations to be held.
00:31
Can you talk about your conversations with the House Freedom Caucus, since the chair continues
00:35
to say that he's a no?
00:36
Yeah, look, I've talked to Freedom Caucus members, I've talked to Budget Committee members, I've
00:41
talked to members from the swing districts.
00:44
I mean, every caucus in the House has had the speaker's attention.
00:50
I've heard their concerns about it, and the thing about it is when you have a piece of
00:54
legislation that is this comprehensive, and with so many agenda items involved, you're
01:00
going to have lots of different priorities and preferences among people, because they
01:03
represent different districts and they have different interests.
01:06
But we can't make everyone 100 percent happy.
01:09
It's impossible.
01:10
This is a deliberative body.
01:12
It's a legislative process.
01:13
By definition, all of us have to give up on our personal preferences.
01:17
I never got to ask anybody to compromise core principles, but preferences must be yielded for
01:23
the greater good.
01:24
And that's what I think people are recognizing and coming to grips with.
01:27
And this is part of the process.
01:29
It's a consensus-building operation, has been from day one.
01:32
This is the culmination of 14 months' worth of work.
01:35
And I believe we're going to deliver this, get the ball over the goal line, so stay tuned.
01:38
So, stay tuned.
01:40
Thank you guys.
01:42
Let's do it.
