1
00:00:00.320 --> 00:00:01.919
<v Speaker 1>Just how debilitated it was.

2
00:00:02.040 --> 00:00:02.720
<v Speaker 2>Joe Biden.

3
00:00:02.879 --> 00:00:04.599
<v Speaker 1>They were telling us that he was great.

4
00:00:04.799 --> 00:00:08.359
<v Speaker 2>Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Today at noon on fifty

5
00:00:08.480 --> 00:00:14.679
<v Speaker 2>five KRC, the talk station eight o five A fifty

6
00:00:14.720 --> 00:00:18.359
<v Speaker 2>five KRSE the Talks Day Shy, Very happy Wednesday to you, Judgentopolitano,

7
00:00:18.359 --> 00:00:20.719
<v Speaker 2>bottom of the hour. In the meantime, please welcome back,

8
00:00:20.760 --> 00:00:24.679
<v Speaker 2>proudly representing Ohio's second District, Congressman David tail Or. Good

9
00:00:24.679 --> 00:00:26.559
<v Speaker 2>you have you back on the fifty five KRC Morning Show.

10
00:00:26.600 --> 00:00:29.719
<v Speaker 3>Congressman Morning Brian, thanks for having me back on.

11
00:00:30.039 --> 00:00:31.879
<v Speaker 2>Well, I know you were a yes vote because only

12
00:00:31.920 --> 00:00:35.479
<v Speaker 2>to vote to know Davidson and Congressman Massey the one big,

13
00:00:35.560 --> 00:00:38.320
<v Speaker 2>beautiful bill. It's got a lot of good in it,

14
00:00:38.320 --> 00:00:40.479
<v Speaker 2>I'll have to admit, But what my big concern is

15
00:00:40.520 --> 00:00:42.560
<v Speaker 2>I want to bounce it off your head. Uh, it

16
00:00:42.600 --> 00:00:46.240
<v Speaker 2>doesn't quite cut enough. We spend an outrageous amount of

17
00:00:46.320 --> 00:00:49.840
<v Speaker 2>money and I was hoping that they would. It would

18
00:00:49.840 --> 00:00:54.000
<v Speaker 2>represent a much much larger cut from government expenditures over

19
00:00:54.039 --> 00:00:56.280
<v Speaker 2>the next decade. Is calculated by the CBO, which we

20
00:00:56.320 --> 00:01:01.359
<v Speaker 2>all have a question mark about their calculations. But any

21
00:01:01.479 --> 00:01:04.640
<v Speaker 2>anticipation that we're going to get cuts to spending down

22
00:01:04.640 --> 00:01:07.640
<v Speaker 2>the road at some point, Congressman, I.

23
00:01:07.599 --> 00:01:11.120
<v Speaker 3>Certainly hope so Brian, that the Big Beautiful Bill does

24
00:01:11.200 --> 00:01:14.959
<v Speaker 3>have one point six trillion plus dollars and cuts, and

25
00:01:15.000 --> 00:01:17.719
<v Speaker 3>I agree with you one hundred percent that's not enough.

26
00:01:18.359 --> 00:01:22.920
<v Speaker 3>We all like to see the fraud wasting abuse that

27
00:01:23.159 --> 00:01:27.040
<v Speaker 3>the Doge found included in this. Unfortunately, to pass the

28
00:01:27.079 --> 00:01:31.400
<v Speaker 3>Bird Rule, it has to be mandatory spending under the

29
00:01:31.400 --> 00:01:35.239
<v Speaker 3>Big Beautiful Bill, and the DOGE fraud, waste and abuse

30
00:01:35.280 --> 00:01:39.439
<v Speaker 3>they found is primarily discretionary spending, so we'll have to

31
00:01:39.480 --> 00:01:42.719
<v Speaker 3>do that a different way. It absolutely has to be done, Unfortunately,

32
00:01:42.959 --> 00:01:46.599
<v Speaker 3>and frustratingly, it can't be done through this bill. I

33
00:01:46.640 --> 00:01:50.719
<v Speaker 3>do think that, as you mentioned already, the CBO scoring

34
00:01:51.000 --> 00:01:55.480
<v Speaker 3>is sort of unfair to the bill, and not surprisingly

35
00:01:55.519 --> 00:01:59.599
<v Speaker 3>they're historically a little bit biased against Republican legislation. But

36
00:02:00.040 --> 00:02:02.000
<v Speaker 3>they're using a growth rate of I think one point

37
00:02:02.079 --> 00:02:05.959
<v Speaker 3>six percent, which you leave the calculation that we're going

38
00:02:06.000 --> 00:02:08.520
<v Speaker 3>to add a bunch of money to the deficit. I

39
00:02:08.560 --> 00:02:10.479
<v Speaker 3>think growth is going to be double that or better.

40
00:02:11.080 --> 00:02:14.000
<v Speaker 3>You were all watching in real time the choices of

41
00:02:14.080 --> 00:02:18.680
<v Speaker 3>dollars of not just international investment, but American companies investing

42
00:02:18.719 --> 00:02:23.319
<v Speaker 3>in on shoring their operations. So I think the numbers

43
00:02:23.360 --> 00:02:25.680
<v Speaker 3>are misleading. But I also agree that we need to

44
00:02:25.840 --> 00:02:28.560
<v Speaker 3>make deeper cuts to our spending. I think this bill

45
00:02:28.639 --> 00:02:31.680
<v Speaker 3>does a pretty good job as a first step on that.

46
00:02:32.319 --> 00:02:35.719
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and I guess I agree with you completely about

47
00:02:35.719 --> 00:02:40.120
<v Speaker 2>the opportunity for much much larger prosperity and growth. Businesses

48
00:02:40.400 --> 00:02:43.680
<v Speaker 2>have to plan, and if they see tax cuts expiring

49
00:02:44.159 --> 00:02:45.599
<v Speaker 2>and they know they're going to get hit with a

50
00:02:45.599 --> 00:02:49.439
<v Speaker 2>bigger tax bill, they tend to contract their level of investment.

51
00:02:49.599 --> 00:02:51.680
<v Speaker 2>So if the Senate were to move forward with this

52
00:02:51.800 --> 00:02:54.560
<v Speaker 2>and at least include whatever that they come up with

53
00:02:54.919 --> 00:02:57.479
<v Speaker 2>and memorialize these tax cuts as permanent, I think that

54
00:02:57.520 --> 00:03:00.039
<v Speaker 2>creates the reliability that many businesses are looking on and

55
00:03:00.199 --> 00:03:01.879
<v Speaker 2>will probably see even more investment.

56
00:03:03.360 --> 00:03:07.520
<v Speaker 3>Absolutely, and there's a lot of encouragement for businesses to

57
00:03:07.599 --> 00:03:09.719
<v Speaker 3>do those. Those very things are the Tax Cuts and

58
00:03:09.840 --> 00:03:13.680
<v Speaker 3>Jobs Act of twenty seventeen is made permanent. Here the

59
00:03:13.719 --> 00:03:17.039
<v Speaker 3>one ninety nine a deduction for small businesses not only

60
00:03:17.039 --> 00:03:19.960
<v Speaker 3>made permanent, but increase from twenty to twenty three percent,

61
00:03:20.039 --> 00:03:23.520
<v Speaker 3>So businesses are getting that benefit. Whereas you know, if

62
00:03:23.520 --> 00:03:25.759
<v Speaker 3>this bill wasn't passed, they were looking at a forty

63
00:03:25.800 --> 00:03:28.719
<v Speaker 3>seven percent tax rate, which is just going to run

64
00:03:28.800 --> 00:03:31.719
<v Speaker 3>an unbelievable number of small businesses completely out of business.

65
00:03:32.639 --> 00:03:36.159
<v Speaker 3>The death tax cap is double to making small businesses

66
00:03:36.199 --> 00:03:40.719
<v Speaker 3>and farms much more easily transferred from one generation to

67
00:03:40.759 --> 00:03:44.479
<v Speaker 3>the next, keeping family businesses and the families crucial. Especially

68
00:03:44.479 --> 00:03:47.159
<v Speaker 3>in the second district. We have so many family farms

69
00:03:47.159 --> 00:03:50.680
<v Speaker 3>and other family businesses that we want to see protected

70
00:03:50.719 --> 00:03:53.639
<v Speaker 3>for generations to come. It allows for you know, one

71
00:03:53.680 --> 00:03:58.000
<v Speaker 3>hundred percent expensing and immediate expensing for buildings and structures

72
00:03:58.120 --> 00:04:03.000
<v Speaker 3>used in an agricolulture. Overall, they're they're they're estimating about

73
00:04:03.000 --> 00:04:06.599
<v Speaker 3>a ten billion dollar reduction in taxes for American farmers overall.

74
00:04:06.639 --> 00:04:10.439
<v Speaker 3>So there's a lot of very positive things in this bill.

75
00:04:10.879 --> 00:04:13.159
<v Speaker 3>We'll see what kind of version comes back from the Senate,

76
00:04:13.199 --> 00:04:16.680
<v Speaker 3>but I'm enthusiastic about it. And you know, as I said,

77
00:04:16.879 --> 00:04:19.079
<v Speaker 3>it's just the first step, but it's a good.

78
00:04:18.959 --> 00:04:22.560
<v Speaker 2>One well and something I think we're all experiencing right now.

79
00:04:22.759 --> 00:04:24.279
<v Speaker 2>And you know, I guess you can give credit to

80
00:04:24.279 --> 00:04:27.120
<v Speaker 2>the Trump administration. I know we're not paying nearly as

81
00:04:27.160 --> 00:04:29.519
<v Speaker 2>much at the at the at the gas pump and

82
00:04:29.800 --> 00:04:32.600
<v Speaker 2>I know that as far as domestic energy production is concerned,

83
00:04:32.920 --> 00:04:36.240
<v Speaker 2>new oil and gas leasing and energy exploration exploration or

84
00:04:36.319 --> 00:04:38.959
<v Speaker 2>part of this bill which might help even more.

85
00:04:40.480 --> 00:04:45.920
<v Speaker 3>Absolutely, then there's even the opportunity for increased leases in

86
00:04:46.680 --> 00:04:49.480
<v Speaker 3>for coal and timber on federal land, which could be

87
00:04:50.240 --> 00:04:52.360
<v Speaker 3>a real boon for the Second District. I mean all

88
00:04:52.360 --> 00:04:55.720
<v Speaker 3>over the country, but I'm always thinking about the Second District. First,

89
00:04:55.720 --> 00:04:58.600
<v Speaker 3>of course, we have the Way National Forest, which it

90
00:04:58.680 --> 00:05:02.879
<v Speaker 3>could be could be law responsibly, and many other opportunities

91
00:05:03.000 --> 00:05:07.079
<v Speaker 3>for energy production in the Second District especially, I was

92
00:05:07.160 --> 00:05:12.439
<v Speaker 3>keen to see the the iory tax credits for wind

93
00:05:12.480 --> 00:05:15.560
<v Speaker 3>and solar rolled back Andy or they're actually eliminated. But

94
00:05:16.120 --> 00:05:19.519
<v Speaker 3>it was super important for our district that those nuclear

95
00:05:19.600 --> 00:05:24.480
<v Speaker 3>credits were not stripped away and those were protected because

96
00:05:24.759 --> 00:05:28.560
<v Speaker 3>you know, we have the only American owned uranium enrichment

97
00:05:28.639 --> 00:05:31.319
<v Speaker 3>facility in the country, and there's a lot of buzz

98
00:05:31.360 --> 00:05:35.279
<v Speaker 3>around that area. Oh, everybody's leaning towards the small modular

99
00:05:35.360 --> 00:05:39.040
<v Speaker 3>nuclear reactors, and that could be the epicenter of that.

100
00:05:40.079 --> 00:05:41.920
<v Speaker 3>You know, the Second District could get back to being

101
00:05:41.959 --> 00:05:45.639
<v Speaker 3>the energy producing capital that it once was.

102
00:05:46.279 --> 00:05:48.759
<v Speaker 2>I couldn't agree with you more and That's one area

103
00:05:48.800 --> 00:05:52.000
<v Speaker 2>that I'm really excited about. Small modular reactors. You don't

104
00:05:52.000 --> 00:05:55.439
<v Speaker 2>need a giant cooling tower. They're basically cookie cutter in

105
00:05:55.480 --> 00:05:57.800
<v Speaker 2>that you can one size fits all. They're not have

106
00:05:57.879 --> 00:06:00.680
<v Speaker 2>to be tailor made any specific region. We do have

107
00:06:00.720 --> 00:06:03.399
<v Speaker 2>the materials to build them and the opportunity to build them.

108
00:06:03.439 --> 00:06:05.759
<v Speaker 2>I had a conversation with I hope next Governor VI

109
00:06:05.839 --> 00:06:09.199
<v Speaker 2>vig Ramaswami. He is excited about the exact same thing,

110
00:06:09.240 --> 00:06:12.399
<v Speaker 2>making Ohio the energy production capital of the country. And

111
00:06:12.439 --> 00:06:15.439
<v Speaker 2>I think that's absolutely achievable. If we can just cut

112
00:06:15.480 --> 00:06:19.199
<v Speaker 2>back the regulatory burden and the environmental challenges that seem

113
00:06:19.240 --> 00:06:21.879
<v Speaker 2>to stand in the way of us getting literally anything

114
00:06:21.959 --> 00:06:24.959
<v Speaker 2>done in this country, man, we could really make a

115
00:06:25.000 --> 00:06:25.839
<v Speaker 2>mark in this world.

116
00:06:27.000 --> 00:06:29.839
<v Speaker 3>Absolutely, and that's a focus also this administration. You know,

117
00:06:30.040 --> 00:06:35.720
<v Speaker 3>all the neeper requirements for we all want these projects

118
00:06:35.720 --> 00:06:37.920
<v Speaker 3>to be done safely, but there's no reason that should

119
00:06:37.920 --> 00:06:40.560
<v Speaker 3>take nine or ten years to get these things done.

120
00:06:40.560 --> 00:06:44.519
<v Speaker 3>You know, Let's speed up the process, do it safely,

121
00:06:44.560 --> 00:06:48.240
<v Speaker 3>do it quickly, and get the benefits roll in for

122
00:06:48.319 --> 00:06:52.680
<v Speaker 3>Americans because all these big energy demanding businesses are coming

123
00:06:52.720 --> 00:06:56.959
<v Speaker 3>to our area. Honestly, we're getting data centers and things

124
00:06:57.000 --> 00:07:01.720
<v Speaker 3>like that that should require massive amounts of energy. It

125
00:07:01.759 --> 00:07:03.480
<v Speaker 3>has to come from somewhere, It has to come from

126
00:07:03.519 --> 00:07:05.839
<v Speaker 3>all sources in order for us to meet the demand

127
00:07:05.839 --> 00:07:08.199
<v Speaker 3>of the future. And when it's real hot or real

128
00:07:08.319 --> 00:07:11.879
<v Speaker 3>cold in the second district, we're redlining our ability to produce.

129
00:07:12.319 --> 00:07:14.519
<v Speaker 3>And then we've got these big companies coming to our

130
00:07:14.600 --> 00:07:16.639
<v Speaker 3>area that are going to demand much more. And the

131
00:07:17.120 --> 00:07:19.399
<v Speaker 3>math doesn't work unless we start producing more energy.

132
00:07:20.079 --> 00:07:22.079
<v Speaker 2>And I know there's a huge demand out there for

133
00:07:22.160 --> 00:07:24.480
<v Speaker 2>military hardware and equipment, and we're seen to be behind

134
00:07:24.480 --> 00:07:26.480
<v Speaker 2>the eight ball and keeping up with say, the likes

135
00:07:26.519 --> 00:07:29.759
<v Speaker 2>of China in terms of, you know, building submarines and

136
00:07:29.759 --> 00:07:32.519
<v Speaker 2>ships and the like. But one hundred and forty three

137
00:07:32.519 --> 00:07:34.600
<v Speaker 2>billion dollars in additional defense spending, we're up to a

138
00:07:34.639 --> 00:07:38.279
<v Speaker 2>trillion dollars. They haven't been able to pass an audit

139
00:07:38.360 --> 00:07:42.639
<v Speaker 2>the last eight or so times. And it will doge ever,

140
00:07:42.680 --> 00:07:45.240
<v Speaker 2>be unleashed on the Defense Department and look at their

141
00:07:45.279 --> 00:07:48.639
<v Speaker 2>spending because something tells me that the money isn't going

142
00:07:48.680 --> 00:07:52.600
<v Speaker 2>where it's most needed, and that's those valuable, the war

143
00:07:52.680 --> 00:07:55.519
<v Speaker 2>fighting materials that we need to actually engage in our

144
00:07:55.560 --> 00:07:58.839
<v Speaker 2>defense and actually to help other countries who are interested

145
00:07:58.879 --> 00:08:00.560
<v Speaker 2>in purchasing our defense items.

146
00:08:02.120 --> 00:08:05.199
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I think there. I know there's been discussions of

147
00:08:05.720 --> 00:08:08.160
<v Speaker 3>that being one of the their next places to go

148
00:08:08.240 --> 00:08:11.560
<v Speaker 3>give a good look to. And no one has any

149
00:08:11.759 --> 00:08:13.600
<v Speaker 3>like you said, no one has any big objection to

150
00:08:13.600 --> 00:08:16.959
<v Speaker 3>two dollars being spent for our military readiness and especially now,

151
00:08:16.959 --> 00:08:22.839
<v Speaker 3>and we have a military or Secretary of Defense that's

152
00:08:22.839 --> 00:08:26.439
<v Speaker 3>that's focused on the things that that are Our military

153
00:08:26.480 --> 00:08:28.879
<v Speaker 3>is supposed to do as you, as you always put

154
00:08:28.879 --> 00:08:32.080
<v Speaker 3>so so eloquently, you kill the enemy and break their

155
00:08:32.120 --> 00:08:33.840
<v Speaker 3>stuff exactly. Thank you.

156
00:08:33.960 --> 00:08:35.720
<v Speaker 2>I appreciate that, Congressman.

157
00:08:36.799 --> 00:08:39.559
<v Speaker 3>That's the job of the military, and they're being refocused

158
00:08:39.559 --> 00:08:41.960
<v Speaker 3>on that. And there's thirty four billion dollars in the

159
00:08:42.159 --> 00:08:46.399
<v Speaker 3>big beautiful bill for ship building, specifically because we're being

160
00:08:46.440 --> 00:08:49.080
<v Speaker 3>out built at at a rate that's not even close

161
00:08:49.159 --> 00:08:52.240
<v Speaker 3>by China, and you know, in the long run, that's

162
00:08:52.679 --> 00:08:55.759
<v Speaker 3>a disadvantage we can't live with. Those dollars have to

163
00:08:55.799 --> 00:08:58.639
<v Speaker 3>be spent appropriately, So I certainly hope that the DOGE

164
00:08:58.679 --> 00:09:02.080
<v Speaker 3>team takes a good look at that and make sure

165
00:09:02.120 --> 00:09:05.240
<v Speaker 3>those dollars are spent effectively. You know, we've got the

166
00:09:05.840 --> 00:09:09.279
<v Speaker 3>all the military defense contractors some of the best ones

167
00:09:09.279 --> 00:09:10.600
<v Speaker 3>in the world. But we have to make sure the

168
00:09:10.639 --> 00:09:13.120
<v Speaker 3>dollars that we send in them are getting one hundred

169
00:09:13.120 --> 00:09:14.519
<v Speaker 3>percent value for the taxpayers.

170
00:09:14.840 --> 00:09:16.960
<v Speaker 2>Fair enough, flet's pause, I'll bring you back be as

171
00:09:17.000 --> 00:09:20.080
<v Speaker 2>I know the USA Car Act is part of this.

172
00:09:20.159 --> 00:09:21.840
<v Speaker 2>You can let my listeners know about that because I

173
00:09:21.879 --> 00:09:24.120
<v Speaker 2>know you were behind that. Plus want to talk to

174
00:09:24.120 --> 00:09:27.519
<v Speaker 2>you about Connor's Law, which you announced the introduction of

175
00:09:27.559 --> 00:09:32.440
<v Speaker 2>that bill. So let's bring Congressman David Taylor back proudly

200
00:10:36.759 --> 00:10:40.600
<v Speaker 2>David Taylor talking about the big beautiful bill. And I

201
00:10:40.639 --> 00:10:43.559
<v Speaker 2>know it contains the USA car Act, you responsor, I

202
00:10:43.559 --> 00:10:46.960
<v Speaker 2>guess Senator Bernie Moreno from Ohio sponsor that you were

203
00:10:47.000 --> 00:10:48.799
<v Speaker 2>in favor of. But what does that do for the

204
00:10:48.840 --> 00:10:49.600
<v Speaker 2>American people?

205
00:10:51.120 --> 00:10:54.679
<v Speaker 3>Yeah? Thanks Brian. The credit where credits do? This was

206
00:10:54.720 --> 00:10:58.200
<v Speaker 3>Centator Marino's idea, and we loved it. Bills get sponsored

207
00:10:58.240 --> 00:11:00.600
<v Speaker 3>on one side or the other and somebody to take

208
00:11:00.600 --> 00:11:02.960
<v Speaker 3>it up on the other side. So he sponsored this

209
00:11:03.000 --> 00:11:04.919
<v Speaker 3>in the Senate and we are very happy to do

210
00:11:05.000 --> 00:11:08.120
<v Speaker 3>so on the House side. What it does is makes

211
00:11:09.240 --> 00:11:12.960
<v Speaker 3>your car loan interest deductible if you buy an American

212
00:11:13.000 --> 00:11:15.759
<v Speaker 3>car fully deductible and your income taxes, which you know,

213
00:11:15.759 --> 00:11:18.919
<v Speaker 3>it does two things. It makes cars more affordable, encourages

214
00:11:19.039 --> 00:11:22.600
<v Speaker 3>purchase of American cars, and it creates jobs for great,

215
00:11:22.639 --> 00:11:26.159
<v Speaker 3>good paying jobs for American workers. So it's you know,

216
00:11:26.519 --> 00:11:28.840
<v Speaker 3>there's no real downside here, and I was glad to

217
00:11:28.840 --> 00:11:31.200
<v Speaker 3>see it included in the in the Big Beautiful Bill

218
00:11:31.279 --> 00:11:36.440
<v Speaker 3>because as as Congressman Winster Boys said that quoted Ronald

219
00:11:36.519 --> 00:11:39.039
<v Speaker 3>Reagan saying, there's no limit to what can be accomplished

220
00:11:39.039 --> 00:11:42.399
<v Speaker 3>if nobody cares who gets the credits. We just want

221
00:11:42.440 --> 00:11:43.399
<v Speaker 3>the good stuff to get done.

222
00:11:44.200 --> 00:11:48.360
<v Speaker 2>So does this does this a deduction come in spite

223
00:11:48.360 --> 00:11:51.799
<v Speaker 2>of the salt deduction or the which I know is

224
00:11:51.799 --> 00:11:54.519
<v Speaker 2>gone to forty thousand dollars if you're not itemizing because

225
00:11:54.519 --> 00:11:56.720
<v Speaker 2>you don't have enough itemization to reach that level, do

226
00:11:56.759 --> 00:11:59.840
<v Speaker 2>you still get to deduct the car interest payment loan

227
00:12:00.120 --> 00:12:00.600
<v Speaker 2>on your loan.

228
00:12:01.559 --> 00:12:04.039
<v Speaker 3>Yes, that was a little bit of a change from

229
00:12:04.039 --> 00:12:06.000
<v Speaker 3>the original language. I believe that's going to mean. We

230
00:12:06.039 --> 00:12:08.360
<v Speaker 3>don't know the final language of the Big Beautiful Bill honestly,

231
00:12:08.399 --> 00:12:11.159
<v Speaker 3>but hopefully the goal on the other side is that

232
00:12:11.840 --> 00:12:14.720
<v Speaker 3>you don't have to itemize. You get it either way.

233
00:12:14.879 --> 00:12:18.480
<v Speaker 2>Okay, So a separate line on the income tax when

234
00:12:18.480 --> 00:12:19.559
<v Speaker 2>you're feeling out your income tax.

235
00:12:19.679 --> 00:12:20.159
<v Speaker 3>Fair enough.

236
00:12:20.360 --> 00:12:22.279
<v Speaker 2>Now, something I understand you're going to be talking about

237
00:12:22.320 --> 00:12:25.480
<v Speaker 2>later today introducing a Bill Conner's Law. And I was

238
00:12:25.559 --> 00:12:29.080
<v Speaker 2>not aware that this was a problem, but apparently it is.

239
00:12:29.480 --> 00:12:34.559
<v Speaker 2>Commercial drivers CDL drivers license holders can be a bit

240
00:12:34.600 --> 00:12:36.399
<v Speaker 2>of a problem out on the roads these days because

241
00:12:36.399 --> 00:12:38.799
<v Speaker 2>we have so many not only just illegal immigrants, but

242
00:12:39.799 --> 00:12:42.559
<v Speaker 2>folks out there driving around that they don't understand and

243
00:12:42.600 --> 00:12:45.759
<v Speaker 2>can't read or speak English, which when I think of

244
00:12:45.879 --> 00:12:47.799
<v Speaker 2>road signs, I think that's a red flag.

245
00:12:48.960 --> 00:12:51.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, absolutely, And it was a there's a President Trump

246
00:12:51.960 --> 00:12:54.440
<v Speaker 3>issued in an executive order to that effect, and we're

247
00:12:54.440 --> 00:12:56.879
<v Speaker 3>trying to codify that at a law because I mean,

248
00:12:56.919 --> 00:13:01.200
<v Speaker 3>that's just a common sense Thing's get this name from

249
00:13:01.320 --> 00:13:04.840
<v Speaker 3>a young man who was killed by a distracted truck

250
00:13:04.960 --> 00:13:06.919
<v Speaker 3>driver who found not to be able to speak or

251
00:13:06.919 --> 00:13:10.200
<v Speaker 3>read English. Can't read a sign that says slow down,

252
00:13:10.360 --> 00:13:13.480
<v Speaker 3>accident ahead. You know, those kind of things obviously are unsafe.

253
00:13:14.679 --> 00:13:18.279
<v Speaker 3>There's a million different situations where it's unsafe for a driver,

254
00:13:18.399 --> 00:13:20.799
<v Speaker 3>especially of a big rig or a big, heavy vehicle

255
00:13:20.840 --> 00:13:23.879
<v Speaker 3>of any kind not to be able to read warnings

256
00:13:24.039 --> 00:13:27.679
<v Speaker 3>of what's on the road ahead. So I can't imagine

257
00:13:27.679 --> 00:13:31.559
<v Speaker 3>this one doesn't have some bipartisan support, and hopefully we'll

258
00:13:31.559 --> 00:13:33.919
<v Speaker 3>be able to get it across the finish line soon

259
00:13:34.159 --> 00:13:35.279
<v Speaker 3>and make our road safer.

260
00:13:35.519 --> 00:13:37.559
<v Speaker 2>Well, I got a big question mark floating in my head.

261
00:13:37.600 --> 00:13:41.240
<v Speaker 2>I don't know how someone ultimately obtains a CDL permit

262
00:13:41.360 --> 00:13:44.200
<v Speaker 2>if they can't speak English. Isn't there reading materials and

263
00:13:44.279 --> 00:13:46.519
<v Speaker 2>things of that nature that go along with obtaining one

264
00:13:46.519 --> 00:13:46.840
<v Speaker 2>of those.

265
00:13:47.639 --> 00:13:50.480
<v Speaker 3>Well, like any other program, I'm sure you can get

266
00:13:50.480 --> 00:13:54.399
<v Speaker 3>in whatever language you want as far as that goes.

267
00:13:54.440 --> 00:13:56.080
<v Speaker 3>But you would think, yeah, there would have been a

268
00:13:56.840 --> 00:13:59.559
<v Speaker 3>red flag from the beginning that if you're going to

269
00:13:59.559 --> 00:14:01.320
<v Speaker 3>get a CDL you need to be able to read

270
00:14:01.320 --> 00:14:04.759
<v Speaker 3>the signs on the road. Apparently that slipped through the cracks.

271
00:14:04.919 --> 00:14:07.639
<v Speaker 2>Apparently it's a hazard for all of us out there,

272
00:14:07.720 --> 00:14:12.480
<v Speaker 2>especially people like me who do ride motorcycles. Right, it'svang

273
00:14:12.600 --> 00:14:17.320
<v Speaker 2>out from a size perspective. All right, Well, I guess

274
00:14:17.440 --> 00:14:20.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm asking to read Tee Lee's Congressman David Taylor. But

275
00:14:20.039 --> 00:14:21.519
<v Speaker 2>the Senate's going to have its way with it. I

276
00:14:21.600 --> 00:14:24.120
<v Speaker 2>know Ran Paul came out over the debt ceiling increase

277
00:14:24.200 --> 00:14:25.840
<v Speaker 2>and said he would never vote for something to had

278
00:14:25.840 --> 00:14:28.559
<v Speaker 2>the increase as large as it is. I know some

279
00:14:28.639 --> 00:14:31.360
<v Speaker 2>other Senators have expressed some concern they want more cuts.

280
00:14:31.919 --> 00:14:34.080
<v Speaker 2>Any sense of where this is going to go? And

281
00:14:34.559 --> 00:14:37.039
<v Speaker 2>I guess your reaction to if they do, you know,

282
00:14:37.120 --> 00:14:40.360
<v Speaker 2>lower the debt ceiling increase or lower the salt deduction

283
00:14:40.480 --> 00:14:42.519
<v Speaker 2>from forty grand where it is now in the BBB

284
00:14:43.039 --> 00:14:45.320
<v Speaker 2>to something where it was like ten thousand? Will you

285
00:14:45.399 --> 00:14:48.879
<v Speaker 2>lose House members who would reject it out of hand

286
00:14:49.000 --> 00:14:50.320
<v Speaker 2>for those types of changes.

287
00:14:51.840 --> 00:14:53.879
<v Speaker 3>Well, first, let me say I'm all for you know,

288
00:14:54.159 --> 00:14:56.879
<v Speaker 3>there's obviously, as we know, more room for spending cuts,

289
00:14:56.919 --> 00:15:00.279
<v Speaker 3>responsible spending cuts that don't hurt people who benefit from

290
00:15:00.440 --> 00:15:04.120
<v Speaker 3>you know, needed programs like Medicare, Medicaid snap. We don't

291
00:15:04.159 --> 00:15:09.200
<v Speaker 3>want our safety net. We caned and we can make

292
00:15:09.240 --> 00:15:13.120
<v Speaker 3>a lot more spending cuts without doing that. That being said,

293
00:15:13.200 --> 00:15:16.600
<v Speaker 3>we as you know, as the one vote margin to

294
00:15:16.600 --> 00:15:19.279
<v Speaker 3>pass the big beautiful bill. So we threaded the need

295
00:15:19.320 --> 00:15:22.879
<v Speaker 3>a little bit. Any real big change is going to

296
00:15:22.919 --> 00:15:27.840
<v Speaker 3>make it tough when we go to conference. So now

297
00:15:27.879 --> 00:15:31.759
<v Speaker 3>the President Trump encouraged the Senate to make changes and yeah,

298
00:15:31.759 --> 00:15:34.360
<v Speaker 3>the boss. So I hope they may make good changes

299
00:15:34.360 --> 00:15:36.240
<v Speaker 3>that we can all live with. And because there's so

300
00:15:36.320 --> 00:15:38.360
<v Speaker 3>much good in this bill, the last thing I want

301
00:15:38.360 --> 00:15:40.240
<v Speaker 3>to see happen is nothing right.

302
00:15:40.440 --> 00:15:44.000
<v Speaker 2>Well true, Listen, everybody's got to go campaign and even

303
00:15:44.000 --> 00:15:46.120
<v Speaker 2>the folks in New York, New Jersey and California push

304
00:15:46.200 --> 00:15:49.159
<v Speaker 2>for the increase in salt. If they say no because

305
00:15:49.159 --> 00:15:52.519
<v Speaker 2>of changes to that, for example, then they're the ones

306
00:15:52.559 --> 00:15:56.200
<v Speaker 2>that have to answer their their voters and the constituents

307
00:15:56.240 --> 00:15:59.200
<v Speaker 2>that well, because of them, we didn't get the permanent

308
00:15:59.279 --> 00:16:01.000
<v Speaker 2>tax cuts and Ryan, which you are going to cause

309
00:16:01.000 --> 00:16:02.240
<v Speaker 2>this economy to take off.

310
00:16:03.320 --> 00:16:06.080
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, to me, the salt issue is the tail that's

311
00:16:06.080 --> 00:16:09.200
<v Speaker 3>wagging the dog. You know, it's it's, it's it's it

312
00:16:09.279 --> 00:16:12.919
<v Speaker 3>affects very few parts of the country, but it's it

313
00:16:12.960 --> 00:16:16.480
<v Speaker 3>is by proxy affecting everybody because it's it's you know,

314
00:16:16.600 --> 00:16:19.159
<v Speaker 3>it's holding up so much good progress for you know,

315
00:16:19.240 --> 00:16:24.000
<v Speaker 3>every expaying American family, every American family period. If we

316
00:16:24.200 --> 00:16:26.960
<v Speaker 3>if we ultimately don't get us across the line because

317
00:16:27.000 --> 00:16:31.080
<v Speaker 3>of uh, the salt situation, that will be extremely disappointed.

318
00:16:31.320 --> 00:16:34.279
<v Speaker 2>Well, I'll look forward to legislation and shrining the DOGE

319
00:16:34.639 --> 00:16:39.120
<v Speaker 2>cutbacks into law, and I hope you engage in efforts

320
00:16:39.120 --> 00:16:41.120
<v Speaker 2>to get DOGE over the Department of Defense and start

321
00:16:41.360 --> 00:16:43.639
<v Speaker 2>rifling through their records to figure out where that money

322
00:16:43.679 --> 00:16:46.519
<v Speaker 2>is going, because I don't know. The fact that they

323
00:16:46.519 --> 00:16:48.399
<v Speaker 2>weren't able to pass an audit like eight times in

324
00:16:48.480 --> 00:16:51.120
<v Speaker 2>a row is troubling to me given the level of

325
00:16:51.200 --> 00:16:54.559
<v Speaker 2>money that we send over there. Congressman David Taylor, thank

326
00:16:54.600 --> 00:16:56.559
<v Speaker 2>you so much for your time today, and you're that

327
00:16:56.600 --> 00:16:59.000
<v Speaker 2>you spent with my listeners of me this morning. I

328
00:16:59.000 --> 00:17:01.000
<v Speaker 2>wish you best of luck and keep up the good fight.

329
00:17:02.039 --> 00:17:03.200
<v Speaker 3>Thank you, Brian. Good to be with you.

330
00:17:03.240 --> 00:17:07.279
<v Speaker 2>To take care, my pleasure, my pleasure, A twenty four

332
00:17:10.160 --> 00:17:14.319
<v Speaker 2>Apolitana word or two about punishing freedom First Amendment this

333
00:17:14.480 --> 00:17:17.200
<v Speaker 2>morning with the wonderful Judge Napolotana.

334
00:17:17.240 --> 00:17:17.720
<v Speaker 3>He'll be next.

335
00:17:17.720 --> 00:17:20.759
<v Speaker 2>I hope you can stick around. Fifty five KRC, the
