I once again rise in opposition to the Republican rip-off. Let's be crystal clear about what Senate Republicans did to this budget resolution. They made a terrible bill that rips off middle-class Americans even worse. They are telling you that two plus two equals zero in this budget resolution to obfuscate the truth. It will explode our national debt. It will make the Trump tax scam permanent. It will make devastating and inhumane cuts to lifesaving services for working Americans to fund tax giveaways to the ultrarich. Instead of standing up for their constituents, Republicans bend the knee to their wannabe emperor and his court of jesters and lackeys in the White House. This budget resolution tells us exactly who the Republicans are working for and who they want to help, and it is not the American people. Mr. Speaker, it is a betrayal, and I won't stand for it.
