“It gives me great joy when I can come to the floor and really speak directly to the moms and dads and families that right now, as we stand on the floor, are probably looking to gather children from schools, looking at what they are going to do over the weekend, maybe doing grocery shopping and looking at the resources that they do have or do not have. It is important that we immediately pass the Build Back Better Act and that those who have a difference of opinion realize that it is always the greater good that America has always been about. When we have gone to war, we have not gone to war to be an offender. We have gone to war to defend principles of democracy. I believe the Build Back Better Act will provide greater pricing of prescription drugs, strengthening the Affordable Care Act, expanding Medicaid for some 12 States. The State of Texas happens to be one of them, where 733,000-plus people are uninsured. These are working people. Expanding Federal Medicaid is going to help those people in States like Kansas and South Dakota. If they won't speak for themselves, I will speak for America. In addition, the care economy really says that we must give childcare and universal kindergarten to people so that we can be advanced and our people can be helped. Finally, let me say that voting is important and crucial. We must pass voting rights. This is Build Back Better America, and build back makes America the best country in the world. ____________________”
