Political Quotes

And just like the recent $2 trillion spending spree, Democrats are ramming this partisan bill through with no Republican input. We didn't even have a committee hearing to examine its harmful effects, including an estimated $47 billion on job creators. Unfortunately, one of my commonsense amendments--to preserve a longstanding ban on secondary boycotts--was blocked by the Democrat majority.
