So the President of the United States. a Republican. and the Republicancontrolled Senate call for this rollback that is modest at best. and yet our colleagues on the other side of the aisle persist in saying. oh. no. this is muchneeded relief for oil companies that receive tax cuts on top of recordbreaking profits. while we cut assistance to the poor. People that have to make a decision between the food that they eat. heating and cooling their homes. and the prescription drugs that their doctors tell them to take want relief from their government. We have already made them refugees from their own health care system by sending them to Canada to get the kind of prices on their prescription drugs that they can afford. and now we are squeezing the middle class throughout the Northeast and senior citizens who have nowhere else to turn. This is a modest. modest proposal that Mr. McDERMOPr submitted last week and I submit this week. that the Republicancontrolled Senate has already passed.
