On the recordOctober 24, 2001
let me just point out that I am the Member from Florida, Florida, who does not know how to conduct an election. But we do know how to do tax cuts. For the past 3 years, we have had these same kind of cuts in Florida. And what are the results? The Florida State legislature is in session today as we speak cutting the budget because of these tax cuts that have been going on, over $1 billion in tax cuts to the rich. Yes, Republicans know how to rob from the poor to give big tax cuts for the rich. Shame on you. Shame on you. Let me tell you something. One of the things that we are talking about cutting, Medicaid, hospitals, school lunch programs. Someone asked the question on the floor and I am going to ask you, why is it when the Republicans present something on the floor that the big dogs always have to eat first? And, in fact, in this bill that you have on the floor, they are the only dogs that are eating.
