"Oh, that bill, only topic. Everybody was psyched about the widespread loss of Medicaid. I'd get stopped on the street, 'Is it true? Thousands, dying in ER parking lots, Rep. Smith? Can't wait! Will someone take photos? Wanna show my grandkids someday, what you did for America!"
Rep. Jason Smith: "Let me tell you -- I was home this past weekend. I had not one person when I was traveling my district that talked to me about Epstein. What they talked to me about is the benefits from the one big beautiful bill."
