Political Quotes

“Thank you for this opportunity to rise up in opposition against this horrible tax. You know, this is an opportunity we have to work with our colleagues on the other side of the aisle; and these days it doesn't seem like that happens too often. But I do rise today in support of repealing the medical device tax put in effect by ObamaCare. We've seen time and time again how this mandate is wreaking havoc on individuals and businesses' security and pocketbooks. Yet here we are again talking about how this law will cost taxpayers their jobs and hard-earned money. Dentists throughout my district have voiced their concerns with this tax and how the burden is going to choke their productivity. I recently polled my constituents throughout my district on whether ObamaCare had driven up the costs of health care in their communities. And an overwhelming 86 percent said ``yes.'' America can't afford another $30 billion tax bill and 43,000 jobs lost. We must continue to work tirelessly to put America back in business, and I believe repealing the medical device tax definitely puts us in that direction. So it is with great pleasure that I get to stand up and work with my colleagues on the other side of the aisle. Thank you so much for working with us on this, and thank you for giving me the time to speak out.”
