"It seems to me that tackling the issue of poverty should be something that we do in a bipartisan way."

"Poverty is people's creation. It is their creation of immoral budgets and unjust policies."

"Budgets reflect our deepest values, our most important priorities."

"We need a moral revolution of values that places the needs and demands of the poor and of the planet at the heart of the budget."
