Ezra Klein, who may not be your favorite writer, says: Ryan's tax reform plan costs more than all his spending cuts combined. That's why I say it can't be implemented. And if we were in private and there were no politics involved, I think my friend would admit that. He shakes his head ``no.'' I didn't expect anything different than that. Ladies and gentlemen, this is an important statement of vision. It's an important statement of what our priorities are. It's an important statement to the American people, to seniors, to students, to families, to children where our priorities are. The Van Hollen priorities are the right priorities for America, and I urge my colleagues to support the Van Hollen alternative. {time} 1620
