There are a lot of bipartisan bills this body could be taking up this
week. Frankly, one of them is Representative Rosen's bill that I will
be bringing up when we defeat the previous question, but, sadly, this
bill is not one of them. I am very disappointed that even in the
majority, even in the governing capacity, even controlling the House,
the Senate, and the Presidency, Republicans are wasting time on what we
around here call messaging bills rather than real bills to address
issues that Americans want us to work on, like bringing down the cost
of college, fixing our broken immigration system, rebuilding our
crumbling roads and bridges, or reforming our complicated tax system to
make it more friendly for growth in our country. Mr. Speaker, I support legislation that puts the needs of workers
first, but this bill before us does the opposite.
