On the recordDecember 20, 2012
I thank my chairman for the additional time. There is a sense out there in this country that folks in Washington, D.C., just want to argue about things, that they don't want to solve anything at all. You all made absolutely accurate criticisms last night that I'm glad we took steps to correct. We have a straightforward tax bill today. We have a straightforward sequester replacement bill today. Mr. Speaker, this isn't the wrong way to do things; this is the right way to do things. And with only 11 days left to prevent all American families from having an unprecedented tax increase, let's pass these bills. Let's pass this rule. Let's get to debate on the underlying resolutions.
