“Mr. Speaker, I thank the chairman for yielding to me. And to the colleague from New York, to all of the people you referenced in the middle class, I say: Hell yes, they are going to be helped by this bill. And do you know what it is going to do? It is going to let them keep the money in their pocket that they earned, the $1,600, for the average resident in my district. And what it is also going to do, Mr. Speaker, is it is going to create jobs. And what does a job do for a person? I will tell you what it does. It not only puts money in their pockets, Mr. Speaker, but we are going to have a new wave of optimism. We are going to have a new wave of opportunity, where people will be able to go to work, soil their hands, and earn their livelihood, which gives them dignity, which gives them pride, and gives them honor. This is a new day in America. And with tax reform and tax cuts coming, I say to all of my colleagues: Join us to stand for those hardworking Americans, give them their money, and allow us to give hope and opportunity to all of them going forward. {time} 1300”
