Representative Tom Suozzi

I don't want to say substantially different. A lot of the elements from that are in there, but it's not that bill. And we're using a lot of different bipartisan bills that have been worked on over the years, like on the Dreamers, for example, and on the farm workers, the Farm Workers Modernization Act.

We're using those and trying to cobble together something that's been bipartisan for many years, but never got over the finish line. And we're hoping that, you know, when the push comes to shove and the administration needs some help to get something done, this will be one of the things that we can make one of the first things we're trying to push through.

Yeah, I don't share that vision, obviously. I'm the Democrat here. Brian's the Republican.

Yeah, I don't share that vision, obviously. I'm the Democrat here. Brian's the Republican.

I'm reasonably sure that Brian doesn't share that vision either because it's a vision of the United States competition with three branches of government that have equal power. And, you know, America's founded on the idea all men are created equal. It's founded on that we all have inalienable human rights to life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness.

But it's also founded on you can't trust each other, which is why we have these different branches to stop any one branch from taking over because they're always going to fight for their own self-interest.

Yeah, Don Young.

Yeah, Don Young.

Well, they hire people who are professional people who have full-time jobs, whose job is to understand the intricacies of Congress, not only the laws and the regulations, but the people and the politics as well. And that's their full-time job is to work on trying to have influence on particular pieces of legislation. Now, a lot of lobbyists

you know, bring a lot of intellect and ability to the conversations about the impacts of different laws. But it also, you know, why have we not been able to fix a lot of big things for so many years? Because someone's benefiting from the status quo. In every instance, somebody benefits from the status quo. So if you want to try and change the status quo,

Because someone's benefiting from the status quo. In every instance, somebody benefits from the status quo. So if you want to try and change the status quo,

the people that benefit from the status quo are gonna use all of their effort to do everything to make you look like a jackass and beat you for trying to change the way it is. So like, you know, Donald Trump, when he first was elected president in 2016, before he became president, said, these pharmaceutical drug companies, they're getting away with murder, these guys.

You know, the way they charge so much more in America than they charge in other countries. And then when it came time to do a law to negotiate prescription drug prices, it was no longer a priority for him. I think that that'll come back soon because people want to start saving money in Medicaid and Medicare and negotiating drug prices using the purchasing power of the U.S.
