“Today, we have had an opportunity to have a vigorous debate about the rule, the rule which will decide how we are going to follow forth on talking about the bill that is before us. We have a tax bill, a tax bill that gives an opportunity to the workers of America to have more small businesses, and more people who want to take that risk and opportunity to go and invest their savings and to open up their own stores and to do things that might be a lifetime dream. On the other hand, we are going to allow a vote that would be very directly for people who wish to support raising the minimum wage. What we have done is we have crafted a fair rule. We have talked about the essence of what Republicans and Democrats are all about today; and I am very, very proud of what we have done and appreciate those who have spoken today.”
