as much as it pains me to oppose the position of my good friend from the state of new jersey, i rise in support of this very worthy amendment and want to thank my friend from new york for his sponsorship of it. mr. bass: as he mentions, it raises the weatherization assistance program by about $141 million, the state energy program by $25 million and the building technology program by $60 million. basically to level funded at the 2011 level and it's offset as was mentioned by a reduction of an increase in the nuclear security administration's weapons activities which would make that line item level funded as well. and i believe as has been said by my friend from indiana as well as my friend from new jersey that the weapons activities programs are laudable, especially as they relate to the safety and security of our weapons stockpile but i think level funding at 2011 levels is adequate. and when you look at the weatherization programs and what they do, you can't dispute it. low income individuals cannot afford to spend money on efficiency. it's just not possible. yet when they do it has

new jersey, you're not wisconsin.s christie of new jersey proposed his own union-stripping bill, people who support unions turned out in protests. the labor unions marched, more than once, governor christie did exactly what scott walker did in wisconsin by going after union rights, but in new jersey, the fight did not go the way it did in wisconsin, because the democrats in new jersey did not stand up against chris christie, most did, but they were not united against them. some democrats went along with chris christie on stripping union rights. they said they had to do it in order to protect their other priorities. give a little now, in exchange, chris christie would give in a little for them on something else. so the democrats are in the major in the legislature in both houses, but the democrats in new jersey do what chris christie want anyways, enough vote with republicans to pass the plan. they leave union rights out to dry because they are getting other things they want from governor christie in exchange. what do

the total for all these expenditures for new jersey alone is $80 billion. $80 billion to new jersey alone. that averages out to be about $26,000 per household in my state, a significant portion of the federal government's investment in new jersey and its people at risk. yet the republicans in the house and many in this chamber will not bend, will not compromise, refuse to step up and govern. their ideology demands that they protect entitlements for the most entitled americans: big oil, corporate jet owners and those who hold the majority of the wealth in this nation. in my view, in my life and in my work i've come to understand how wrong they are. when the 400 richest americans at the top hold more wealth than 150 million americans at the bottom, we cannot simply put the burden on those who can ill afford it. let's be clear, the republican protection of the entitled class has nothing to do with balancing the budget or reducing the deficit, nothing to do with values, nothing to do with faith or cultural conservativism, nothing do with community responsibility. it has everything to do with
