let's be clear about what is going on here. This is a procedural attempt by Republicans to derail our ability to get this bill across the finish line and deliver for families in our country. It is actually outrageous that Republicans are trying to talk about pregnancy when in this country, right now, they are forcing women to stay pregnant no matter their circumstances, pushing cruel and extreme abortion bans. Republicans are now resorting to tactics like this to distract from the fact that they don't have any serious reasons for working so hard to oppose this bill that lowers costs, lowers emissions, and lowers the deficit. I urge my colleagues to vote no. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Florida has 40 seconds.
