Concurrent Resolution on the Budget for Fiscal Year 2027

Floor Speech

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. CARTER of Georgia. Mr. Chair, I thank the gentleman for yielding.

Today, I rise in support of the SAVE America Act and the Protect America Act because it is about security, and it is getting back to common sense.

The American people are tired. They are tired of Washington playing political games. They want to secure elections. They want us to finish the job in Iran. They want to know that the government is standing with the farmers, ranchers, and producers who put food on our tables every single day.

This resolution does exactly that. It strengthens confidence in our elections with commonsense voter ID protections, gives the troops the tools they need to defend this country, and provides certainty for our agricultural community because food security is national security.

People back home in Georgia understand that freedom isn't free. They will understand elections should be secure, and that our farmers deserve policies that help them succeed.

This is about putting America first, doing what the American people sent us up here to do, and delivering real results, instead of Democratic political theater.

Mr. Chair, I urge my colleagues to vote ``yes'' on the SAVE America Act and the Protect America Act.
