Political Quotes

“Well, as you know, I am in the same position as you with the bill. We never thought--look, we got together, this House, Republicans stood united, passed the Limit, Save, Grow Act. We stood united, and it was supposed to get us in the room. We knew it wasn't going to be perfect. We always knew that. We never expected to get everything we wanted. We understand that President Biden didn't want any of it. We understand that Chuck Schumer couldn't pass any bills over there and wasn't going to agree with any of it, but we thought we would get something from it, something. It was $1.5 trillion for a date certain, a number certain for said policy. We lost on both ends of the deal. It is $4 trillion, uncapped spending, and none of the policies. The REINS Act, to stop the unbridled regulatory state, that is not there. Work requirements that would actually save us money, not saving us money. Rescissions, where we took money and were going to send it back to the Treasury, that didn't happen. We rescinded it, but we are going to spend it. That is not saving money.”
