On the recordMarch 19, 2010
In my State, the first 3 years we are responsible for these additional costs is going to cost my State $600 million. Well, that is a savings to the taxpayer. Now it is just the State taxes that are going up instead of the Federal taxes. Now, there are bipartisan solutions. I challenge my colleagues, let's take a break. Let's go home Sunday and Monday and Tuesday and come back Wednesday. Let's have a town hall meeting, each of us in our districts, hear from our people back home what solutions they want to see and come back and vote on Thursday. Somehow, I think that these people who are on the bubble will learn that they should be representatives and not dictators.
