I led a bicameral letter with 67 of my colleagues, including Tim Scott, Marco Rubio, Rick Scott, who came in when I did back in 2018, objecting to the then-proposed rule which would cost hundreds of thousands of jobs and over $30 billion…

I want to have you tell us, in your own life, inflation has never been as bad as it is now.

Is there anything you can do to help law enforcement funding, particularly make it to the small agencies?

That is not good.

I would suggest get the grants from places that will have them available, dependably, and that is from entities that cash-flow and do not borrow to do it.

I think that when it comes to funding, probably it is going to be harder to get, because if you are going more and more in debt, you are asking your kids and grandkids to pay for it.

Many businesses that I talk to that have had the kids do not want to be on the farm because you get so much more done.

I do not think that is going away, and we need to do a better job of that here in Indiana.

Amen. Thank you.

You are giving them fish rather than teaching them to fish, and that is an unmitigated disaster for our country if we do not teach work ethic.

Older Americans play such a critical role throughout the economy.

As I said in my opening statement, I will get on that bill and try to find a pay-for for it and get it across the finish line.

That would be an unmitigated disaster for our entire nation because you do not reinvent the American farmer.

Enough is enough.

Why, if there is nothing broken, would you try to fix it?

I do not think so. I am going to vote for it. It is not going to pass anyway.
