On the recordDecember 14, 2011
What we ought to be saying is we can hold down the taxes on the middle class, we can fairly extend benefits for the unemployed, we can make sure our doctors will continue to see our seniors and our disabled people if we ask the hedge fund managers and the millionaires and the billionaires of this country to pay just a little bit more. We will give the House an opportunity this afternoon to vote on that bill. That's the bill we should be considering. If we do, we can then proceed immediately with passing this badly needed defense bill.
