00:00Leaving the Senate now, at the end of the vote, when the Republicans won,

00:05they cheered.

00:07They cheered over taking away health care from around 17 million people.

00:13They cheered over giving huge tax breaks to a handful of billionaires.

00:19They cheered over running up the national debt by another $3.5 trillion.

00:25You know, this bill, it's bad.

00:28It's bad economically.

00:30It's bad morally.

00:32This bill is just wrong.

00:34But we stay in the fight.

00:36We stay in the fight.

00:37We stay in the fight.

00:39And we proved why we stay in the fight.

00:41Because actually, there are pieces of this bill that we got better.

00:44We got the tax on solar and wind knocked out.

00:47And that's going to help with clean energy.

00:50We got a few different pieces and made them better.

00:53So that's reason number one is always the reminder.

00:56All of those calls matter.

00:58Reason number two is it's still not over.

01:01The bill has now got to go back over to the House.

01:04And there are a lot of Republicans who are feeling really squeamish about this bill at this point.

01:10So that means we got to stay in the fight.

01:14And reason number three is, yeah, they may do this now.

01:18But come November 2026, they're going to have to face the voters.

01:23They're going to have to face the people, the families of the people whose healthcare they took away.

01:28And they're going to have to explain exactly what they just did just now on the floor of

01:33the United States Senate and whatever they do next.

01:35So this is hard.

01:39But damn, we stay in the fight.

01:42We stay in it.

01:43Not because it's an easy fight.

01:45Not because we're guaranteed to win every time.

01:47We stay in it.

01:48Because it's the right fight.
