Michael Burgess: “I welcome the fact that the administration has provided this flexibility.”

I am pleased to yield 4 minutes to the gentleman from Missouri (Mr. Alford) for his comments.

I urge adoption of the amendment. It is important, with $31 trillion in national debt, that we be good stewards of taxpayer dollars. The gentleman is right. I have pursued this for a number of years, but it is because it is a noble cause…

This has all been so moving and so lovely, but if anyone tuned in late tonight in C-SPAN, they probably thought I passed because it really did sound like a eulogy. I am still here, and I will continue to text and call and inform everyone…

This is a national emergency. This is something we have got to address and save Americans, 200 every day.
