Political Quotes

“The Census Bureau recently reported that 100 million Americans are on the brink of poverty. Maybe now Tea Partyers here in Congress will realize what millions of people already know, which is that Americans are barely getting by and that the misguided Republican agenda of deregulation, higher taxes for the middle class and tax cuts for the rich will do nothing for those who are struggling. We should extend the payroll tax cut, toss a lifeline to struggling Americans who can barely make ends meet, and stop holding small businesses and American families hostage with the threat of higher taxes. I hope my Tea Party colleagues will take a moment to put the interests of the majority of Americans over those of overpaid bankers and oil executives. We must extend the payroll tax cut, help renew opportunity, and restore the American Dream to the American people. ____________________”
