Madam Speaker, we have less than 4 days left before the
scheduled August recess. I hope in that time we can focus on
strengthening the economy and empowering consumers rather than taking
away consumers' rights, like this bill does. We should focus on fixing our broken immigration system to create
more economic growth and reduce our deficit, and we should create jobs
and make sure that more people are covered by healthcare, not less. Instead, here we are, spending time on the floor of the House
stripping away consumer protections and spending American taxpayer
money on an unwanted border wall, in direct violation of President
Trump's promise. Madam Speaker, I oppose this rule, and I oppose the underlying
legislation. I strongly urge my colleagues to vote ``no'' on both, and
I yield back the balance of my time.
