Mr. Speaker, this is what we’ve been going through: ‘You want a budget for six weeks? Defund Obamacare! Delay Obamacare! Take away the individual mandate from Obamacare! Or, please, just sit down with us and tell us what we can take away from 20 million Americans who need healthcare, and then we’ll reopen the government.’
Let me say to my colleagues: If you would just stop trying to burn down the house, we can talk.
Congressman Mike Doyle (D-PA).
