I am prepared to close, and I yield myself such time as I may consume. Mr. Speaker, this is a clear choice. Opponents of tax reform make this a clear choice. They stand for business as usual, special interests as usual, losing our U.S. jobs overseas as usual, making it hard for young people coming out of school to find good-paying jobs as usual, and Washington having a greater claim over your earnings than you do as usual. That is what the opponents of tax reform stand for today. Today is about no more of that. It is time to drain the swamp. It is time to drain this Tax Code. It is time for a fairer and simpler Tax Code that Americans deserve, to close loopholes and special interests and lower tax rates so hardworking Americans can keep more of what they earn. Say ``no'' to the swamp. Say ``yes'' to a new Tax Code and a new era of American prosperity. I urge a ``no'' on the motion to instruct. Mr. Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time.
