Political Quotes

“It doesn't make sense. I thank her for getting us to this point. I know how much frustration she must feel, having worked so hard and in such a bipartisan way to get us to this point and to now have a process that would get this bill moving forward and get funding out there, get infrastructure repaired, put men and women to work in good, solid, high-paying jobs, only to be all snarled up so that a small group of people can score points with a political issue that has nothing to do with transportation, infrastructure, or highways. If people want to have a fight about whether women should get access to contraceptive medicine, I suppose that is their right in the Senate. But the idea to stop a highway bill to forge that fight is what to me is irresponsible.”
