00:00Public information.
00:01Congressman Green, do you think it was a proportionate response to have police tase somebody who was just groaning at you from the crowd?
00:08They weren't approaching you, they weren't anywhere near you.
00:11Just, what are your thoughts on that?
00:12Yeah, like I said before, this isn't a political rally or a protest.
00:15I held a town hall tonight.
00:17You know who was out of line?
00:18The protesters.
00:19There was a place designated outside for the protesters because we support their First Amendment right.
00:26So, you know who was out of line?
00:27The protesters.
00:28The protesters did a great job.
00:30I'm very thankful for them.
00:31I hope the concern is real.
00:33And actually, Americans have been fighting their belts for years.
00:37And the past four years just hit a height that we had inflation at the highest rates that we had not seen for four years.
00:46And, yes, I think this is something the American people understand better than Washington, D.C.
00:51I'm just hoping that all of us can get it right in our job in Congress.
00:55I'm just hoping that all of us can get it right in our job in Congress.
00:58I'm just hoping that all of us can get it right in our job in Congress.
