00:11resolution, an essential step in moving forward with the reconciliation process. This vote paves
00:18the way for meaningful action on securing the border, strengthening the tax code to support
00:23our families and economic growth, and investing in reliable domestic energy, which ensures a strong
00:29national defense, and sets the country on a much healthier financial path. Passing this
00:35amendment allows the House to begin drafting instructions for committees to take up these
