Political Quotes

“They are at it again. Corporate lobbyists and billionaires are spending whatever it takes to get their way in this town and avoid paying their fair share in taxes. Meanwhile, working people who play by the rules are getting crushed by healthcare costs, childcare expenses, housing payments, and student loan debt. What is the Republican solution for this problem? A $1.5 trillion tax cut for millionaires and billionaires, and a tax increase for tens of millions of hardworking families. This bill is a scam. Republicans are throwing a wealthy five-star banquet for the wealthy and well connected, and saving a few crumbs that fall from the table for the hardworking middle class. Democrats know that American people deserve a better deal. That is why we are fighting to build an economy that ensures better jobs, better wages, and a better future; create 10 million new full-time, good-paying jobs; invest in rebuilding our crumbling roads, bridges, and schools; lower costs for everything from prescription drugs to childcare; and break up corporate monopolies that are raising costs and reducing choices for working families. Republicans might be fine with the status quo that benefits the wealthy and powerful special interests. We know the American people deserve better--better jobs, better wages--for a better future. ____________________”
