Floor Speech

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. LARSON of Connecticut. Mr. Speaker, I rise to associate myself with the remarks of the distinguished gentleman from Massachusetts.

I think he used the right words when he talked about theater.

Isn't it long overdue that we are honest with the American people about what this is about?

Come on, Mr. Speaker, you can't really believe that what you are proposing here isn't shielding the wealthiest people in this Nation and corporations.

People at Augie & Ray's in East Hartford are not fooled by this, and they understand what the agenda is. You place us further in debt and leave us with little else to do to help the people who need it the most.

What is this a guise for?

Cutting what you call entitlements.

What people at Augie & Ray's know are earned benefits that they pay for every single week out of their paycheck where they pay their taxes as well.
