Speech #1050046340

I did not vote for a bill that refuses to provide important basic worker protections in this country. protections like family and medical leave and protection against sexual harassment. I did not vote for a bill that hurts childrens hospitals in my State. I did not vote for a bill that infringes on a womans right to choose and I did not vote for a bill that does not promise to protect legal immigrants in this country. Todays Republican bill violates the budget agreement that was so carefully put together and so hard that we worked on. And it shortchanges middleclass American families so that tomorrows Republican tax cut bill will be able to provide the richest 5 percent of Americans in this country with the biggest tax cuts in the bill.
