Political Quotes

“Just hours before a critical deadline for this country, the Democrat Senate is MIA. On Saturday evening, House Republicans sent them a second legislative proposal to keep the government open, and the Senate is sitting on it. They have yet to take action or to even come in to work. Make no mistake--the House is committed to keeping the government open. We are open to compromise. We know that's required of a Congress comprised of a Republican House and a Democrat Senate. That's why we have taken steps to come to the middle and find common ground. Our most recent proposal to keep the government open fully funds critical services, protects troop pay, provides fairness for all Americans under ObamaCare, and permanently stops ObamaCare's medical innovation tax. There is so much potential for bipartisan efforts to advance this legislation in the Senate, but Senator Reid needs to bring up the proposal and adopt an attitude that is broader than ``our way or the highway.'' There is time left for us to work together. The Senate needs to hustle. ____________________”
