00:00We want to welcome you to the Democratic Issues Conference, but note what great weather we
00:06brought you today.
00:09We want to thank Ted and Pete for organizing this, and this is going to be a really good
00:13time for all of us to talk together.
00:16We know we're really excited to be with each other for these next few days and the chance
00:22to be with fellow House Democrats to come together and to plan for the next two years
00:27ahead.
00:28I have one message for you guys today.
00:31We are united.
00:33We showed yesterday that House Democrats stand firmly against Donald Trump and Elon Musk's
00:39chaos in House Republican schemes to slash Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security.
00:47We will continue to show that what you saw yesterday, I know you want to see us.
00:54You're going to see that unity in the weeks and the months ahead as we expose and talk
01:00about what the House Republican budget does to Medicaid, taking away healthcare from tens
01:07of millions of Americans.
01:10What we're really going to do is lift the voice of real people, veterans who've lost
01:15their jobs at the VA, medical researchers who've been fired from the labs, and countless
01:21others who are the victims of Trump and Musk's chaos.
01:24That's what we're all working on, raising the stories, letting the American people see
01:29what the impact of what's happening is.
01:32Why are Trump and Republicans subjecting the American people to this chaos?
01:36And even more, why are they making people hurt and hurting them the way they are, these
01:43cruel cuts?
01:45To be clear, to give tax cuts to billionaires.
01:49It's a clear message.
01:50If you've been out there like I have, and I've been talking to a lot of people, the
01:54American people are on our side.
01:57Our job over the next 21 months is to make sure that voters are hearing this message
02:01loud and clear, and we're going to keep repeating it over and over.
02:06And that's exactly what DPC and our entire caucus intends to do.
