Let's be clear that the new rules allow the Republicans to do this, but it's going to cost trillions of dollars to our budget and it's going to cause greater suffering for the American people. So it's a wrong course of action. Let's not repeal this bill. It will hurt Americans, it will hurt our economic competitiveness, and it will hurt the fiscal condition of this nation. I encourage a ``no'' vote.
