I would remind the gentleman that this bill would put 1.3 million people in Missouri at risk of losing Medicaid. Mr. Chair, I yield 2 minutes to the gentlewoman from Texas (Ms. Escobar), a distinguished member of the Budget Committee.

This is going to be truly one of the highlights of my tenure in Congress, to be sitting there where our Founding Fathers sat exactly 250 years prior, to the exact day.
This bill truly was Robin Hood in reverse: it is robbing from the poor, taking away their healthcare (and) their food assistance in order to give money to the ultra and mega wealthy.
I do think our founders would be surprised and alarmed that this current Congress has not jealously guarded its prerogatives as the legislative branch, not just in the last two years but over the last 25 years.
