"I signed the amicus brief because I was persuaded by the argument that Professor Card made and the strength of his empirical work."

"I believe that it is imperative that the government does its part to catalyze an economic recovery that is both equitable and sustainable."

"In the long run, I believe the benefits will far outweigh the costs, especially if we care about helping people who have been struggling for a very long time."

"Our response must be too."
