Paul Ryan: Tax Reform ‘Is One of the Most Historic and the Biggest Things that We Will Ever Do

EXCERPT:

RYAN: "My colleagues, I ask you today to raise your gaze and do something bold. To see the forest through the trees. To think about the people we are here to actually represent. To think about the people who are struggling, who are going to go to bed tonight and probably not sleep because they’re worried about what’s going to happen tomorrow. That’s what this is. This is one of the most historic and the biggest things that we will ever do. And the reason is because this is one of the biggest things we can do to improve people’s lives. To revitalize that beautiful, American idea. To spread liberty and freedom. This is something that’s going to refresh our confidence in ourselves, and our confidence in each other. Enough settling. Enough giving in. Let’s start to reclaim our future right here in this moment, in this chamber, in this moment, let’s pass this bill."
