Speaker. we can do better. As I mentioned earlier. when we do defeat the previous question on the vote. the amendment I have offered into the RECORD will amend the rule to prohibit the House from starting our vacation tomorrow. unless we do our job and pass a budget. I strongly urge my colleagues to vote "no" on the rule. vote "no" on the underlying bill. and. instead. work to pass a budget and find solutions to the big problems that we were sent here to face. like improving our national security. like securing our border and replacing our broken immigration system into one that reflects our values as a Nation of laws and a Nation of immigrants. one that makes prescription drugs more affordable and improves upon the Affordable Care Act. improves our schools. invests in infrastructure. and so many of the other issues that I hear about from my constituents at our town halls. on the phone. and in letters. I urge my colleagues to vote "no" on the rule and the underlying bill. I yield back the balance of my time.
