On the recordSeptember 30, 2020
Let me yield myself such time as I may consume just to quickly make a couple of points and then move to my friend from Arizona. Far be it for me, Mr. Speaker, to defend the upper body. I am a very proud Member of this House, as I know all of us here are. But it is worth noting for the Record the Senate actually had 52 votes to pass a bill. It was my friend's party that kept them from considering it. As to the Supreme Court, thank goodness they don't have to deal with the House of Representatives. That is why they are able to move quickly. They could move pretty quickly if they had somebody they could deal with here as well. It is my friends who have chosen to craft legislation that they know will be unacceptable, that they know the President will not sign, and then rail at them for not passing it and the President for not signing it. That is the height of chutzpah, if you will. Mr. Speaker, I yield 3 minutes to the gentlewoman from Arizona (Mrs. Lesko), my distinguished friend and fellow member of the Rules Committee.
