“I would like to give one last shout-out to Republican Study Committee Chairman Jim Banks. He has been fighting this ridiculous spending from the get-go. It is largely due to Jim's leadership that so many Americans know just how bad this reconciliation bill really is. I would like to thank everyone who participated in tonight's Special Order. We heard really compelling stories from our colleagues about the dangers of Biden's out-of-control socialist spending. Our Nation is still recovering from forced lockdowns that killed small businesses across this country and wreaked havoc on the intellectual development of an entire generation of students. Our number one priority should be empowering job creators to grow and succeed and growing their local economies with them. Biden's build back broke plan kills small businesses and increases our reliance on cradle- to-grave welfare systems. I am living proof that never-ending handouts simply do not work. They only increase the dependence on the system that will never help individuals become self-sufficient. To quote my favorite President, Ronald Reagan, the greatest social program in the world is a job. We need more people in jobs, not less. All that the Biden administration has to show for 9 months in power is an abysmal unemployment rate and record high inflation. It is simply not working. It is time to give fiscal responsibility a serious try. Madam Speaker, I yield to the gentleman from Utah (Mr. Moore).”
