Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, I wish I could say that the budget resolution being moved through Congress right now will help America's middle class. I wish I could say that this budget will help provide opportunities for struggling Americans and security for our seniors. I wish I could say that this budget will help raise stagnant wages, help our kids attend college, and help our businesses create jobs. I wish I could say all of that, but I can't. What I can say is that the budget being pushed through the House today would make hard-working Americans work even harder and take home even less, while benefiting special interests and the ultrawealthy. I ask my Republican colleagues to partner with us in a bipartisan fashion to create a budget that will benefit all Americans. ____________________”
