On the recordMarch 25, 2010
I want to reiterate that the House is operating an unprecedented restrictive rules process... to deny Members the opportunity to come and to place their ideas on this floor, to debate their ideas, and a chance to vote on them. I think it is a bad way to run the House... our friends on the other side of the aisle refuse to work with the Republicans. They refuse to allow amendments or even a motion to recommit, and then given themselves martial law, same-day suspension authority, and other circumventing activities just to get their job-killing agendas through this House of Representatives. If it weren't just job killing, it would be simple for the American people to understand, but it is also record taxing and spending. Big Government.
