Political Quotes

“The gentleman is exactly right. I have had producers call me. When I was in the district, they brought that up, the no-match letters. They are in a tizzy. If we go back prior to President Obama, there were no-match letters. This is what is wrong when you have bad policy. When you get rid of a program or a requirement that is working, people get complacent. They are like: Hey, I don't have to match up to Social Security, so there is no reason for me even to apply legally. Then, when you try to reinstate it, you get angry people, and it gums up the system again. That is why, if we have a good system in place, there is no reason to back away from it because this will be a policy that will live beyond you and me. Madam Speaker, I yield to the gentleman.”
