Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume. Mr. Speaker, once again, 25 amendments, and we are being given 30 minutes to debate 25 different amendments. We just effectively approved $250 million--one-quarter of a billion dollars--in 2 minutes. These aren't our funds. These are taxpayer funds. This bill had, I believe it was around 1,300, 1,400 pages of text just airdropped in the bill. It wasn't marked up in committee. It was just airdropped in the bill, added to it, and now we are just going to appropriate trillions of dollars in taxpayer funds without adequate consideration. Once again, Mr. Speaker, I urge rejection of this en bloc, and I reserve the balance of my time.
