Bill Lee said "Mr. President, it is unkind for us to tell Americans--just moms and dads, ordinary people who are trying to live their lives and put food on the table--that they can't put food on the table and that they are going to be rendered unemployed and unemployable unless they defer to Presidential medical orthodoxy. It is not who we are as Americans. It is especially not who we are as is the case with these mandates. There are not adequate provisions made for those with preexisting medical conditions, for those with religious objections, and for those with natural immunity. That is what we are dealing with here. It is illegal; it is immoral; it is unkind; and we should not fund its enforcement. I plead with my colleagues to support my amendment to defund the enforcement of these mandates. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Washington." @ PoliticalQuotes.com
