BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. ROY. Madam Speaker, my Democratic colleagues own this bill. Let's be clear:

Tax increases for the average American, check.

$80 billion to the Internal Revenue Service to go after those Americans, to hire agents, jobs already posted, check.

Increased electricity prices, increased gas prices, tilted windmills with your unicorn energy policies, check.

Increased government and corporate control of healthcare, check.

I hear my colleagues talking about, ``Oh, we are going to go after pharma.'' Well, what did the CDC say yesterday?

Don't worry about all of those mandates, don't worry about all of those vaccines, and don't worry about all the quarantines. Sorry, pox on us.

But my colleagues now today are going to dump hundreds of billions of dollars into corporate America, screwing over the American people every single day with tax audits, increased energy prices, and increased taxes.

Congratulations. Take that to the polls.
