“Mr. Speaker, Rome is burning, but not because of the leadership of Republicans and Donald Trump. After 4 years of failed leadership under President Biden, our country faces many challenges. Yet, Republicans, along with President Trump, are ready to address them head on and get our country back on track. The one big, beautiful bill is here, and the American people are ready to see us deliver on our promises. This is historic legislation that is a bill for working Americans. Here are three words I want my colleagues to remember: ``ineligible,'' ``illegal,'' and ``able.'' Those are the people who we don't believe should be taking Medicaid from pregnant women, children, the disabled, and the elderly. We have heard a lot about 13.7 million people are going to lose their healthcare. That number was debunked by The New York Times. That is a newspaper that doesn't write a lot of things that are friendly to our side. It is not that way. This is a bill that is going to support pregnant women, children, the disabled, and the elderly. It supports our veterans, our farmers, and our small business owners. It secures tax certainty, permitting reform, and our border. Mr. Speaker, put quite simply, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act is America First, and I am proud to support it. With this vote, we can unlock the golden age of America.”
