Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, how are House Republicans working for America's working families struggling to make ends meet? By pursuing an economic scheme that raises their taxes and increases their everyday costs. The very first bill that House Republicans passed was a break for tax cheats that also benefited large corporations and billionaires while adding $114 billion to the deficit. Last time Republicans controlled the House, they enacted a $2 trillion tax cut for the 1 percent and big corporations.
