Political Quotes

On the recordNovember 18, 2021
I thank the chairman for yielding time. Sometimes what happens in Congress is complicated. It is wrapped in parliamentary procedure and language that is hard to understand. So let's be very clear about the legislation that we are discussing today. The Build Back Better Act is a tax cut for working families. It is an extension of the child tax credit and preschool access to help parents get back to work. It is the largest ever initiative to fight climate change. It is a tool to give every American a chance to succeed. Passing this bill will lift children out of poverty, expand our middle class, and make healthcare more affordable. It is simple. Madam Speaker, we need to pass this bill because the American people deserve this investment.
