Political Quotes

“Today, House Republicans will stand up to business as usual in Washington and vote for a budget that will help our economy grow, guarantee the promise of Medicare for everyone, and put forth a true all-of-the-above energy strategy in America. Now, compare this to President Obama's budget, one filled with more of his failed tax-and-spend policies, one in which he called for over $45 billion in new taxes on energy production. With prices surging at the pump--more than doubling since President Obama took office--it's unconscionable that he would want to further burden America's small businesses and families who are already struggling. America sits on top of the largest amount of total recoverable energy resources in the world, including oil, natural gas, and coal. That's 1.3 trillion barrels of oil equivalent. Just imagine if we developed them as part of a real all-of-the-above strategy. Job creation would surge, gas prices would fall, and America would be one step closer to energy independence. ____________________”
