               AMERICAN FAMILIES WILL PAY FOR REPUBLICAN TAX CUT

      (Ms. KELLY of Illinois asked and was given permission to address the
    House for 1 minute.)
      Ms. KELLY of Illinois. Mr. Speaker, I rise today because, just 2 days
    ago, my Republican colleagues jammed through a budget plan that puts
    the 0.1 percent above hardworking Americans.
      The Republican budget would give $4.5 trillion to CEOs and big
    corporations.
      Who pays for the tax cuts? American families just trying to make ends
    meet.
      The Republican budget cuts at least $880 billion from Medicaid. It
    doesn't matter whether someone is a Democrat, a Republican, an
    Independent, or a nonvoter. Americans across the country will either
    lose healthcare or see their premiums increase.
      All the Federal workers that Elon Musk and DOGE decided to fire for
    no justifiable reason will also lose their healthcare.
      Republicans represent millions and millions of Americans who rely on
    Medicaid and CHIP, and none of them, not a single one, voted with these
    constituents in mind.
