I reserve the balance of my time. Ms. DeLAURO. Mr. Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from Illinois (Mr. Quigley), who is a member of the Appropriations Committee.
In that case, may I inquire as to how much time is remaining. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman from Oklahoma has 6 minutes remaining.
Look, no president - and administrations - don’t get to dictate what’s going to happen here. Congress is not the Army.
It’s cheaper to try and cure it, or at least manage it and delay it, than it is to deal with it.
