On the recordNovember 21, 2024

Only in Washington is a bill that passed 382-11 considered deeply controversial, a bill that says that U.S. tax dollars should not subsidize terrorist organizations. The other side views that as deeply controversial. That is the statement you just heard from the prior speaker. That is very, very unfortunate. That is why the American public is so upset with Washington. It is because they are completely out of touch with reality. Mr. Speaker, I yield such time as he may consume to the gentleman from Kansas (Mr. Estes).
