I think it is. I. It's a reconciliation bill, so it's not an appropriations bill. It is cutting trillions of dollars, I mean, billions of dollars in spending and Medicaid. It's also designed to help with deportations in the wall, spending where we need it. Obviously my state cares about that security, so I think that's a valuable spend. It also end up saving money some because now we won't have to support some of these people who are coming in illegally. (01:26–01:32)
