Mr. Speaker, I rise in opposition to this proposed rule, which begins laying the framework for one of the largest spending bills in the history of this institution. It is nearly $2 trillion being dishonestly sold to the people as COVID relief.
With a price tag this big, Mr. Speaker, you would think that the House Democrats would want this bill to go through the committee process where Congress and the public can digest this information. But no. They are attempting to fast-track this bill to make decisions with no committee, no bipartisanship, no oversight, and no discussion.
Mr. Speaker, this is American taxpayers' money, not government's, and it is being spent with no accountability and no transparency.
The bottom line is that the hardworking, taxpaying Americans deserve to have a voice in this process, and I will fight against attempts to fast-track this bloated bill every step of the way.
