“There is nothing bipartisan about this bill. Speaker Pelosi made it clear: Whatever far left socialist priorities didn't make it into this bill would be taken care of in reconciliation. That is what we are really here to do today. The total price tag of this infrastructure bill plus reconciliation is $4.7 trillion. American people, listen: 4.7, t, trillion dollars. It is difficult to visualize a number so mind-bogglingly wasteful. If we started stacking $4.7 trillion bills one on top of each other, that stack would be 317,971 miles tall. That is enough to go to the Moon and a third of the way back. This is beyond wasteful. It is disgusting, irresponsible, and unnecessary. The bill would put our national debt over $30 trillion. When is enough enough? This is saddling our children and grandchildren with debt that literally goes to the Moon. Mr. DeFAZIO. Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume. There seems to be confusion on the other side of the aisle. I am hearing a lot of different numbers. There is one bill before us today. The gentleman says it is not bipartisan. Eighteen Republican Senators voted for it. Granted, neither of his illustrious Senators from his State voted for it, but 18 Republican Senators did vote for it. The numbers keep jumping around. We have one bill before us today, not the other one you want to debate. We have one bill before us that will build America's infrastructure, a long-overdue investment.…”
