It’s not as easy as saying, ‘Hey, I just want one more change,’ because one more change could end up being what collapses the entire thing.

My objective and my responsibility is to get that bill over the line, so we will do everything possible to do that.

These little flourishes that were added, like no tax on tips, are issues that are designed to cover the horrible job that they’re doing.

There’s a lot of delays right now, so that’s part of the problem.

Everybody knows I’m a ‘no,’ so they’re just putting me in the ‘no’ category, and then everybody else has to decide what they’re going to do.

Well, I think the Senate accomplished a near-impossible task. They took an ugly bill and they made it even uglier.

Hopefully we’re voting on this by tomorrow or Thursday at latest.

The White House enlightened holdouts how its implementation would accomplish what they want, but wouldn’t give specifics.

I feel very positive about the progress. We’ve had lots of great conversations.

We're on a time clock that's been really set on us, so we have a lot of pressure—and then also given the fact that there's 435 members of Congress and it's hard for us to get to an agreement on anything.

I’m not disappointed. I mean, again, this is part of the process.

As the president said, it’s his bill. It’s not a House bill, it’s not a Senate bill, it’s the American people’s bill.

Migrants are expected only to be housed temporarily at the site before being removed from the country.

It is the cruelest bill that I've ever seen in my tenure in the House of Representatives.

All Democrats will 'no' and they only need to flip four Republicans to prevent the bill from passing.
