I am glad the chairman spoke because this back-and-forth really illustrates what this is all about. The chairman made these three provisions permanent and paid for. This bill here doesn't pay one dime. We have voted to continue these…
The whip is so correct. The gentleman from Indiana is very confused. He is using his voting card as a credit card. $73 billion on this bill. Our voting card is not a credit card, but the Republicans are turning this into a credit card…
