The taxes will not legally be able to be spent on anything other than deficit reduction.

California will get a good number of them.

I want to just review those features today and why I think it's important as a first step in our long-term efforts in redeveloping the American economy and the California economy.

We're going to have to plan to do that.

I'm convinced that on a level playing field our farmers can compete with anybody in the world.

By breaking the gridlock and ending the filibuster on national service today, the Senate scored two victories.

Almost all of the opposition has been generated by false claims that this plan has no deficit reduction, no spending cuts, and too much of a tax burden on the middle class.
