BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mrs. DINGELL. Madam Speaker, I call on my Republican colleagues today to stop holding our Nation's economy hostage.

It is dangerous, and it is unconscionable knowing the devastating impact it is going to have on American working families.

Kim from Van Buren Township in my district called my office yesterday scared. She is in the process of buying a house and thinks she should stop because she is worried that the Nation's economy is going to tank.

She reflects the American people and their concerns, but Republicans will be posting messages of support for veterans on social media this weekend while advocating for a plan that will abandon all of those veterans and their families at the moment they need their country most.

I am staying. I am missing my goddaughter's wedding because I have a job to do.

Where are Republicans?
