Political Quotes

“Madam Speaker, from imposing a nationwide ban on abortion to curbing voting rights to gutting Social Security and Medicare, Project 2025 is an extremist MAGA Republican manifesto that pledges an egregious assault on our freedoms, our economy, and our democracy. At the urging of the former President, a small but extreme number of House Republicans are threatening to shut down the government unless they can impose radical actions of Trump's Project 2025. A government shutdown would not only have a devastating economic impact, but it would jeopardize the critical services and programs American families rely on, hinder our military readiness, and deprive veterans of the healthcare they need and benefits they have earned. Madam Speaker, I urge my colleagues on the other side of the aisle to reassess their priorities and prioritize the interests of the American people over the interests of the former President. We must keep the Federal Government open and keep the Federal Government working for the people. ____________________”
