I do not know how you can be tighter if you have a million people--let us assume we have a million people in the welfare system in Pennsylvania, which is high, but let us say we have a million people, and we say 50 percent of those people have to go to work. That is 500,000 people. Under your standard, we say 667,000 are technically under your new program because the other 333,000 are ineligible right from the start, and if you take half of 667,000, you are now down to 333,000, not 500,000. So we are going to have, in the case of a million, we are going to have 120,000-some more people working, required to work than under your bill.

If you listen, just listen to what Josh Hawley is saying. He basically is saying the same thing, in my opinion that Barbara Boxer said, which is I can't certify this election, knowing of the irregularities that I believe happened in Ohio.
We came here and created a blank slate. We birthed a nation from nothing. There was nothing here. Yes, we have native Americans. But there isn’t much Native American culture in American culture.
