Political Quotes

Mr. Speaker, House Republicans have a plan to create jobs, grow our economy, and secure our future for all Americans. And we're doing it by expanding opportunity, not expanding government. We're holding government accountable to the hardworking taxpayers of this country. We're reining in runaway Washington spending that's driving up our national debt. We're going to reform our Tax Code to make it fairer and simpler for all Americans. We are promoting an all-of-the-above, all-American energy strategy that will create jobs, lower energy costs, and strengthen our national security. These are the commonsense solutions that the American people deserve, Mr. Speaker. It's not fair that Washington Democrats keep offering up only more spending and political games. Real solutions to real problems, that's the House Republican commitment. ____________________
