Political Quotes

“Madam Speaker, I rise to highlight the significant investments we enacted to help working families with the cost of living. In a time of great uncertainty and change, people are living paycheck to paycheck or on fixed incomes. Many are struggling just to pay basic bills. Our investments represent a lifeline for working families. By increasing funding for childcare, public schools, and providing high- quality job training, this bill gives more tools to help Americans succeed. Government must serve the people, not the biggest corporations. We provided resources to small businesses and entrepreneurs as they pursue the American Dream. We invested to connect communities to the internet and expand access to affordable housing and homeownership. We strengthened our core services and tackled the root causes of rising prices. One example is by providing $158 million to support the production and delivery of small- to medium-size manufacturers, helping detangle the supply chain and lower costs to consumers. We paid for it by cracking down on big corporations and the wealthiest who are not paying their fair share. This government funding legislation truly delivers for the people. ____________________”
