There are lots wrong with these bills. I will discuss that during the debate on the bills. This is about the rule. For my friends on the other side of the aisle, they need to understand that this is a self-executing rule.

I want them to understand that they are going to have to go home and explain to their constituents why they voted to strip $100 billion out of funding President Trump's wall.
