"My concern is that we are now hearing with the new majority in the House that, again, deficits only matter when it is things that affect middle-class families."

"I would argue that, unfortunately, the spending in the 8 years in the previous administration was not focused on those things that create innovation to create jobs."

"I think it is really important if we are not going to repeat mistakes that have been made before that got us here."

"I need to know that there are sufficient resources available to make sure that stopping the Asian carp is a top priority for the administration."
