That's 292 days to do something, anything, to lower costs, to bring down prices, to make America more affordable, said McGovern during a House Rules Committee meeting. To do something about healthcare, tariffs, grocery prices, rent, or heating bills. And what did you do? You handed out tax breaks to billionaires and took the longest vacation in modern history."
"Because she will represent the 218th signature on a discharge petition to release the Epstein Files. Oh, we didn't forget about those either. Don't worry. We won't forget that the speaker of the House refused to swear in the first Latina ever elected to represent Arizona because he was more concerned about protecting pedophiles than getting the truth out there for the survivors."
Rep. Jim McGovern sharply condemned House Republicans for 292 days of inaction on affordability, citing healthcare, tariffs, grocery prices, rent, and heating bills. He accused Republicans of handing out tax breaks to billionaires and taking an unusually long vacation instead of addressing cost-of-living issues. McGovern highlighted criticism from within the GOP, noting that Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene also called out Republican leadership. McGovern pointed to the refusal to swear in Representative-elect Adelita Grijalva and tied that refusal to efforts to block a discharge petition seeking release of the Epstein Files. He framed the actions as protecting powerful interests over survivors and transparency.
