First, let me say I think we have two thoughtful Members of the Congress of the United States presenting these proposals. Senator Lankford has represented that in the House and now represents [that] in the Senate. And as I've told Mr. McClintock, I always enjoy hearing him speak because I think he speaks [the] truth and with good analysis. However, I disagree with both of you strongly. Mr. McClintock – Congressman McClintock, you just said what I think is the real issue, and you said that no legislation or rule can replace political will." | 1 | 2026-07-23T07:31:02Z | 2026-07-23T07:32:26Z |
