Republicans doubled the tax credit in 2017 with this bill, and now we increased it another $500. So we increased the tax deduction for having children to $2,500 as well. That would be another answer. A little Second Amendment we've slipped in there. There are some rules and regulations around what I would call a silencer, a muffler on guns, that type of thing.

We have 400,000 violent criminal aliens in this country. It is way more expensive, Charlie. It may cost $100,000 per person to escort them out of this country. Thank you, Joe Biden. And we'll take care of that for four years. We don't have to go back to the Democrats every year and say, hey, we want money for the border. We want money for the military.

We spent an hour yesterday as a Republican caucus talking about the national debt and what's going on with selling our treasuries, that type of thing as well. But I do think we get there. My message to my pro-life people is this. You know, we did what we wanted to do. We sent most of the issues back to the state. And now the states need to do their job as well.
