mr. flores. and i encourage my colleagues from the other side of the aisle, that we would look at every dollar that we spend, and we would make sure that that dollar is being spent in the most wise situation that we possibly can. with accountability, with coordination. let's not segment those dollars. let's use the appropriation process that's already in place, not set up anymore of these special fund here or there, and make sure all of our dollars are used to get the best health care we can for women, children, men and folks from every age. thank you, mr. chairman, and i yield back my time. >> if it you'll yield a couple minutes. >> as much time as you may consume. >> thank you. just looking at the clock, since we had already taken the vote on this bill, to the time we will vote on this on thursday, on the floor, by the full house, our national debt will have gone up by more than this provision saves over ten years. we will -- we will borrow more money as a government in the next three days than
