                             REJECT TYRANNY

  (Mr. CAWTHORN asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. CAWTHORN. Madam Speaker, you are not God. Your will does not bend 
the forests or shake the mountains. And let me assure you, your will 
does not bow the knee of millions of my countrymen who refuse to heed 
your calloused command.
  To threaten arrest on others for their own personal medical decisions 
is nothing short of a medical apartheid, and I will not let it stand. 
For if I am to cowardly bend a knee here, like those on the left wish, 
then what is to stop you all from taking your tyranny to the rest of 
this country that I love?
  How dare anyone in this institution attempt to dictate to the 
patriots of my staff how they may live their lives. For one to think 
that because they have the title ``honorable'' attached to their name 
means that they may dictate what others may say and think repulses me.
  What makes this Nation special is that in this free land the people 
are the royalty. So arrest us if you will, but I will not cower and I 
will not bend.
  Madam Speaker, you have come to take away our liberties but, Madam 
Speaker, in this country you are outnumbered.
