Political Quotes

“I thank Congressman Joe Crowley from New York, who has been a leader in the New Democratic Coalition. He has really been, as a member of both the coalition and of the Ways and Means Committee, as I am, really out front and really working to make sure that we are as economically competitive as we need to be in this country. And that means all American workers being given new opportunities. And that really does involve making sure that we get these trade agreements right. So I want to thank the Congressman, and thank him for asking me to join him this evening. What I want to do is to add my words, some of them will be similar, I share some of the same feelings you do, about how important it is for us as new Democrats to participate and to push to make sure that we get trade policies in this country that, in fact, are committed to advancing sustainable and responsible trade between ourselves and the rest of the world. We recognize that this is a new day in the way we work. It is a global marketplace.”
