EXCERPT:
JOHNSON: “We’ve got almost no calls to the offices, any Republican member of Congress. And I think that indicates people are taking a wait-and-see attitude, some who may be convinced by some of his arguments. But the rest understand this is a very exciting piece of legislation. I'm going to say this -- look, I didn't go out to craft a piece of legislation to please the richest man in the world. What we're trying to do is help hard-working Americans who are trying to provide for their families and make ends meet. Those are the people that are going to be excited about what this legislation produces.”
