Political Quotes

“I actually have written notes here. I came prepared to talk about the importance of the ACA tax credits, and as I sat here, I prayed: What do I even say in this moment? There is a Scripture that says: Choose ye this day. Today, we have an opportunity to make a choice. We have an opportunity to do something that is so plain and so simple. There is a book in the Bible called the Book of Habakkuk. A lot of people don't even know it. It is like three chapters. In it, it says: We always hear, how long? Not long? No, in it, it says long. It says pain. It says corruption. It says suffering. But what it does say is, make a plan and make it plain. So what we come today to say is we have something that is plain and simple and will lift up America. And that is the opportunity to vote, open the government, and restore people's healthcare.

Work with us.”
