I wanted to complete the thought that the Republican budget does not use extrapolations and interpolations to cook numbers and make things up and make claims that never come true. We will have an ending of the Social Security earnings limit. It will be paid for through this bill. It passed the House. It passed the Senate. It will be signed into law. The fact is that, by the time we are at the end of this summer, we are going to have in the vicinity of $250 billion worth of tax relief for every American who pays taxes without any extrapolations, interpolations or any other hyperbolations that the Democrats may want to lay on this floor today. But they are my friends, and I appreciate their ingenuity. They are just wrong.
