"The American Jobs Plan is going to create millions of good-paying jobs, jobs Americans can raise a family on -- and, as my dad would then say, with a little breathing room."

"We need to ensure greater equity and opportunity for women. And while we’re doing this, let’s get the Paycheck Fairness Act to my desk as well. Equal pay. It’s been much too long."

"The country supports this reform and Congress should act -- should act."

"But the rest of the world is not waiting for us. I just want to be clear. From my perspective, doing nothing is not an option."
