Transcript:
Mr. Speaker, when you practice law there is an old expression that goes something like this, if you have the facts- argue the facts - if you have the law- argue the law - if you have neither, attack your opponent. That appears to be what is happening.

There are those of us who have argued that the process that we are engaged in, that is we will not vote on the senate bill but we will kind of vote on the senate bill, we will deem it pass, is unconstitutional.

In response to that the Speaker of the House has said this, I think it's ridiculous and the people who are tell you that it's unconstitutional know better and you should be very outraged say things like that, they know when they talk, they are not telling the truth.

I resent being called a liar by the Speaker of the House. I resent the fact because there are constitutional scholars who have said this is unconstitutional.

Now, I have only argued one case before the Supreme Court which I won on behalf of the people of the state of California. So I am not considered one of the great practitioners before the Supreme Court, but we have spoken to one of them who will work with us in bringing this case to the Supreme Court if we try this outrage against the American People
Let's stick to the facts, stick to the law and stop attacking people personally.

Thank you.
