Justice is recognized. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, and I thank the ranking member for his leadership.
00:06
As we are here in the early morning hours, 60% of the families in this country cannot afford the
00:16
basics. 60% of Americans cannot afford that first rung of the American dream. This is an existential
00:25
failure of the wealthiest nation on earth. And now, with this big, ugly bill, Republicans are on the
00:35
verge of moving that dream further out of touch, of making people sicker and poorer. We hear the
00:42
message. If you do not have great wealth, you do not matter to the GOP. If you vote for this cruel
00:52
monstrosity, you are condemning families to poverty. You are condemning seniors and veterans in this
01:00
country to hunger. You are condemning children to sickness without treatment. You are voting to
01:09
enrich billionaires at the expense of what makes us American, our freedom to build a better life
01:17
for our families. The American people overwhelmingly oppose this bill. And they will not forget if you sell
01:29
them out, sell out their freedom this Independence Day. I yield back.
01:35
Gentle lady yields.
