Mr. Chairman, the Speaker is absolutely right, but this is about their values, not America's values. We hear it's about the children. The Democrat Party's budget, the one that they have proposed, is going to bankrupt our children. They are not going to live at a standard of life as we live today because of their budget, if this is put into place. The Republican budget is about the children, because it will save their future. Our budget is about the children's well-being. The Democratic Party's budget is about their values, bigger government, greater control of people's lives. They want to do that. They want to take money away from hardworking American citizens and build a bigger government, and they want to tax them to death, tax them into bankruptcy. But our budget doesn't do that. It actually helps to balance the budget. It helps to have a future for our children. That's the difference. Our budget is about the children. It's about families. It's about businesses. It's about having a strong financial future for small business. That's what our budget does. Their budget guarantees a bigger future for government bureaucrats. I encourage anyone in this House who is interested in, truly, our children and furthering the best interests of America and the middle class to vote for the Republican budget.
