Mark Kelly

I have gotten to the point that when I get back home, what I get most of the time are concerns that people have that they cannot connect with the agencies that are supposed to serve them.

When your trying to enforce the law, you still provide service.

I feel that you should not have that break between service and enforcement.

I think it becomes an us versus them or a them versus us type of a situation.

There is nothing wrong with the law. The law is well written. It is that the IRS needs to implement the law as it is written.

I keep hearing all the time about, well, I wish they would get something done in Washington.

I do not think that enough people throughout our Nation understand the dedication that people working within our government have for our citizens.

FEMA needs to be held accountable and to make sure that the people that they are giving the money to are--are also held accountable.

It is a sizable investment that we make and it is an investment that we need to make.

You are doing one hell of a job.

If you are in a peeing contest with a skunk, the only way to beat him is to out-pee him.

I am so damn tired of forfeiting the game and then crying because we lost.

We have to be damn fools if we don't think we haven't been in a trade war for decades.

I believe it is going to take eternal vigilance.

Let's make sure as we leave this room today, we are the oversight Committee. Our main role is to protect the privacy and the rights of every individual American citizen, of which our President happens to be.

I do not question their integrity.

This, I said earlier, is a Pandora's box. You take the lid off this, and you make anybody subject to this type of scrutiny.

This is an incredible overreach. This is an oversight Committee. Our very role is to be the watchdogs to make sure that American citizens are protected.

So at what point do people say are you kidding me? Why would I ever run for any of these offices?

I don't challenge Mr. Neal's integrity in regards to his authority to use 6103.

The reckless sharing of a taxpayer's private information for political purposes would be unprecedented and completely outside the bounds of Congress' role as a legislative body.

I look forward to working together with you, as well as other Members of the Subcommittee, specifically on issues of bipartisan concern.

We want preexisting conditions covered. We want to make sure that employers can offer this.

It is pretty simple, and the reason that it can be affordable is because you widen the universe of who is paying premiums.

The most obvious part of it is the 'Affordable' Care Act.
