"The Federal Government should lead the way."

"I can tell you that if you told seniors or if you told Federal employees today, as you did, that you can change from 5 to 4 percent, it will protect your core benefit, there will be, quote, no change ..."

"Do you think that this document is misleading to consumers?"

"As Senator Collins said, our adversaries are not sitting in the stands waiting to see what we do."
