Political Quotes

On the recordNovember 14, 2016
Last Tuesday the American people, with optimism, elected Donald Trump and Mike Pence to lead our country. I congratulate President-elect Trump and our friend and former House colleague Vice President-elect Pence, and Karen Pence, on their deserved victory. This election clearly revealed, when presented with a choice of continuation of big government or change for limited government with expanded freedom, the American people stood up for the conservative values that would create jobs, lower taxes, and rebuild our military. The ideological conflict is alive and well, and conservative principles are proven to promote opportunity for all Americans. The American people have selected a brighter future for their children and grandchildren. I look forward to working with President-elect Trump and Vice President-elect Pence, partnering with Speaker Paul Ryan, to promote jobs for all Americans and reinforce our principles of limited government with expanded freedom. In conclusion, God bless our troops, and may the President, by his actions, never forget September the 11th in the global war on terrorism. God bless President-elect Donald Trump and Vice President- elect Mike Pence. ____________________
