Political Quotes

On the recordFebruary 11, 2011
School districts tell my office of receiving Federal grants that will cost them two to five times the size of the grant to administer the grant. Not all regulations are unwarranted. Most Americans would agree on the need for regulatory protection, and to assume otherwise of this committee is irresponsible.

As Members of Congress, we cannot cede over the responsibility of legislation to the unchecked regulatory regimes that end up levying this hidden tax.
