Lincoln Diaz-Balart said "Let's be very clear. We are going to know shortly who wants to shut down the government and who wants to keep it open because we are going to have a vote. In front of us today is this resolution to keep the government open. I know there is going to be a lot of talk, but we are going to have a vote. If you vote for this resolution, it keeps the government open, and if you vote against it, government shuts down Saturday night. That is not too complicated. The American people are smart. They get that. Out of all the talk we are going to hear, we will know on that vote. If you vote for this resolution, you are voting to keep the government open. If you vote against it, well, you are voting to shut it down. Mr. Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from Arkansas (Mr. Westerman), the distinguished chairman of the Committee on Natural Resources." @ PoliticalQuotes.com
