Political Quotes

“That's money directly out of the pockets, and that's money that has to be set aside. What I would like to take a few moments on, with your permission, is to talk about a program that you and I and our colleagues on the Democratic side have been working on now for the last, almost a year now, and we call it Make It In America. It's that great American middle class, the heart and soul of this country, the men and women that went to work every day and made something. They made cars. They made jet airplanes.

We call this Make It In America. And it's so important. You come from an area that still is a great manufacturing sector and was once the greatest center of it.”
