Mr. STANTON. Mr. Speaker, I rise in strong opposition to this extreme Republican budget bill, an additional $40 billion to ICE, an agency that has already received an unprecedented amount of taxpayer funds with zero reforms, zero accountability, not a single dollar in this bill to lower the cost of living, nothing for families drowning under Trump's tariffs, nothing for skyrocketing grocery bills, nothing for the gas prices that have been driven up by a failing war of choice in Iran.

This budget shows the American people where the MAGA Republicans' priorities lie. They will roll over to Trump every single time, while their own citizens struggle to make ends meet.
