Celia Israel said "So we want these solutions-based budgets that achieve these three critical priorities, and the way we get to those three critical priorities is through one thing, and that is compromise. It is the ability of both sides of the aisle to pursue these three priorities in a balanced way. The budget before us right now is not about compromise, it is about ideology. It is not about common sense and solutions, it is about extremism. The American people have sent us here to get things done, to find solutions to move them forward. Let's not go backwards, Mr. Chairman. Let's not continue gridlock, Mr. Chairman. Let's find a balanced approach that rests on compromise and supports the middle class. And that is why I rise today in opposition to the budget before us. I thank my distinguished friend from Maryland." @ PoliticalQuotes.com
