RASKIN. Mr. Speaker, we are so proud of the leadership
Congresswoman Jayapal is showing in both Washington State and
Washington, D.C., in resisting these terrible cuts to the domestic
budget of the people of the United States, in showing leadership, also
especially in defending American values when it comes to immigration
and affording a refuge to people fleeing political and religious
repression all over the world. She is a true leader and we are very proud of her. I am grateful that
she is sharing a couple of minutes with me tonight to talk about the
astonishing news of the day, which is the most dramatic and draconian
budget cuts offered perhaps in our lifetime to the domestic budget of
the United States.
