00:00This is a critical moment in the American journey.
00:04Everything we care about is under assault.
00:08The economy is under assault.
00:12The safety net is under assault.
00:16Our very way of life as a country is under assault.
00:22Democracy itself is under assault.
00:25House Democrats will not provide a single vote
00:29to this reckless Republican budget.
00:32Not one.
00:34Not one.
00:36Stand with them today.
00:38Stand with them tomorrow.
00:39Stand with them next week.
00:42Healthcare should be a right for everyone.
00:45For everyone.
00:48Not a privilege for the wealthy few.
00:52We should be focused on strengthening programs
00:55like Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act
00:58instead of trying to undermine them for bad,
01:01irresponsible tax plans.
01:04Right now I'm terrified because Republican leaders
01:07seem poised to take critical resources away from my family.
01:12The House is voting today on a budget resolution
01:15that would gut programs like SNAP.
01:19But without SNAP, I wouldn't be able to put food on the table.
01:23Even with SNAP benefits, it doesn't
01:25get me through the month.
01:27I still have to rely on food pantries and food distribution
01:31sites.
01:32It shouldn't be going on, people.
01:34Fund our schools.
01:36Fund our schools.
01:38Fund our schools.
01:40Fund our schools.
01:43I don't know what I've been told.
01:45I don't know what I've been told.
01:47Research helps the young and old.
01:49Research helps the young and old.
01:51I don't know what I can see.
01:53I don't know what I can see.
01:56Science helps to cure disease.
01:58Science helps to cure disease.
02:00We are.
02:01Mad scientists.
02:02We are.
02:03Mad scientists.
02:04We are.
02:05Mad scientists.
02:07We are.
02:08Mad scientists.
02:09From outbreaks of viruses and forest fires,
02:13these are the people who put themselves at risk
02:16to protect the rest of us.
02:18And that's who Trump and Musk and a bunch of kids
02:21without any real world knowledge and experience
02:25are trying to get rid of.
02:29Trump and Musk, whose genius is in putting their
02:32name on work and breakthroughs of other people
02:35and charging rent for it.
02:39Well, hands off.
02:43This money is the public's and we demand that it
02:46be used for the public good.
02:48Nobody voted to halt cancer research.
02:51Nobody voted to cut life-saving treatments
02:53to health disease.
02:54You know, heart disease.
02:56Diabetes affects millions of Americans.
02:59Is that a left-wing agenda?
03:01I don't think so.
03:02In all the different things that Donald Trump
03:05has cut, the one thing that hasn't gotten cut
03:09is the cost of eggs.
03:12Or the cost of housing.
03:15Or the cost of health care.
03:18So there's a saying in labor about people.
03:25We need to be united.
03:29We need to have each other's back.
03:32We need to fight on behalf of every American.
03:38That is what everyone here is doing.
03:43In solidarity, in unity, the people united
03:49will never be divided.
03:52The people united will never be defeated.
03:58Educators united will never be defeated.
04:02Educators united will never be defeated.
04:07United will never be defeated.
04:14Science is really important.
04:16I'm sure it's what I'm here for.
