Blanche Lincoln: “We are not a Nation of spendthrifts or fraudsters or sharp dealers.”

I do believe that particularly in this day and age with the economic circumstances we find ourselves in, that the duplicative regulation is just not appropriate.

Business as usual is simply not acceptable. Fundamental financial market oversight reforms must pass.

These Farm Bill deliberations should not be a Washington command and control top-to-bottom approach to policy.

Creating jobs, putting our economy back on the right track, is my number one priority.
