"I just want to make sure I am on record as saying that we are very anxious... to get this thing reauthorized."

"This is a program where liberals and conservatives get together and say, this is what Government should be doing."

"True innovation, job growth, and business opportunities should stem from the open and free market, and not from creation of more taxes and Government spending."
