I thank the chairman for yielding. Madam Speaker, as a progressive, I rise today to say that our party must unify, and we must vote ``yes'' today on both the rule and the bipartisan infrastructure bill. Now, I know there is all this jargon about rule and BBB and BIF, but really, to me, this is very simple. The question is: Do you trust the President? I trust President Biden. I trust that President Biden cares about the working class. And for 40 years, the working class has not had any support. On the other side, for 4 years under Trump, they gave tax cuts to the rich. President Biden wants to give money to working families in the child allowance. He wants to give them a tax cut. He wants to make sure they can pay for childcare. And he understands the working class experience. We will unify as a party. We will vote ``yes'' tonight. We will deliver. And this President is going to make history by finally looking out for the working class and the middle class in this country.
