    "content": "Thank you, hon. Speaker, for giving me a chance to contribute on this Motion. I am shocked that the Senate, which comprises of people who have been doing some budgeting for this country for many years, can come to a conclusion where they want to add to the Budget some money whose source we do not know. May God forbid this House from becoming a vehicle for taxing Kenyans highly, in order to accommodate a wish of the Senate! May God prevent this House from getting this country into indebtedness to accommodate the wish of the Senate! This is the House that taxes Kenyans and we must be considerate to Kenyans’ interests. What is the purpose of having the BPS, if we cannot consider it when we make final decisions? We should have rejected this proposal from the Senate yesterday. Therefore, I oppose the amendments of the Senate and urge that we adapt what has been proposed by our Budget and Appropriations Committee."
