                 GOP TAX SCAM HURTS WOMEN AND FAMILIES

  (Ms. McBRIDE asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. McBRIDE. Mr. Speaker, I rise to share the story of a mother from 
Delaware whose daughter lives with a condition that means she cannot 
eat food without getting sick. Her daughter relies on Medicaid to pay 
for the formula that keeps her alive.
  Without it, she won't just struggle. As her mother wrote plainly to 
me: ``If she loses Medicaid, she will die.''
  Mr. Speaker, we must not gut Medicaid to give tax breaks to 
billionaires while moms are begging for their children to survive. This 
mom's story is not an outlier. This is a daily reality for thousands of 
my constituents.
  Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues: Protect Medicaid and protect this 
child. This is a lifeline.
