Trump

Floor Speech

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Ms. DEAN of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, shuttering USAID, gutting the Department of Education, threatening the Department of Labor, firing FBI agents, buying out civil servants, vilifying workforces over grotesque DEI concerns, stripping away legal protected status of refugees, giving an unelected billionaire access to the most sensitive information of everyday Americans, and unchecked control of our institutions.

Just 2 weeks into the second Trump Presidency and every executive order, every administrative move has been a methodical step to sow chaos, confusion, and fear.

Back home in Pennsylvania and here in Washington, my offices have been flooded with calls and messages from my constituents. People are afraid for their jobs, their health, their hard-earned benefits, their children, and their very futures.

Every day begs the same question: What is next? Whatever your stance on government reform, our hope is for more efficiency, lower costs, and stronger opportunities. It is clear that these policies are hurting everyday Americans. Mr. Speaker, this is not normal. It is immoral, and it is unlawful.
