Political Quotes

“I applaud my colleagues on our side of the aisle for working hard to try and return some of the money to hardworking people. I am always for that. If you are working, you should keep the money that you earn. Whether you are corporate or whether you are an individual, but here is where I have a problem--this refundable tax credit. See, my folks get up every day. They get up early. It is usually dark. They put their kids on the schoolbus and they go to work to afford their bills, which they can barely afford right now. They can't afford their groceries, their gasoline, their credit card bills. They can't afford them because the Federal Government is flooding the economy with money. Now, we are getting ready to flood more because, Mr. Speaker, regardless of what anybody thinks, if you are here illegally with a Social Security number, you are going to get the money. I have a news flash for you: Little kids don't get the checks sent to them, even though they got a Social Security number, but their parents, who are here illegally, do, and it is going to happen by the millions. My folks, the folks that are working hard to put food on their table, are tired of paying for that. We should reject this.”
