NO SPECIAL TREATMENT
(Mr. HARRIS asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute.)
Mr. HARRIS. Mr. Speaker, tonight, all we did is we asked the Senate
to negotiate with the House.
Mr. Speaker, interestingly enough, the Majority Leader in the Senate
[[Page H6050]]
doesn't even want to talk to the House about as fundamental an issue as
funding the government starting an hour and 20 minutes ago, and whether
or not there should be no special treatment for anyone under the
Affordable Care Act--no special treatment for big corporations at the
expense of the average American, and no special treatment for Members
of Congress and their staff and the President and the Cabinet and their
staff.
Mr. Speaker, the Majority Leader should negotiate on those, and I
hope he changes his mind tomorrow morning.
