The host, Carol Marin asked Kinzinger about jobs.

Kinzinger: You said where are the jobs going to come from? Two years ago, we tried spent a trillion dollars on jobs and it didn't work. It failed.

Marin: The argument is that it wasn't enough. It needed to be more.

Kinzinger: Well then let's just make it $10 trillion?
