Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, over the past month, the price of gas per gallon has increased by 31 cents, with an average cost of $3.83 per gallon. This weekend the President said that his administration could not do much to provide relief at the pump, but, actually, earlier he promised to increase energy costs, which destroys jobs. The President also claims to support an all-of-the-above energy plan; however, due to his decision to reject the Keystone pipeline, it is clear these claims are not being fulfilled. The President's solution to help with rising energy costs is to delay smog regulations that will mandate that more sulfur be stripped from gasoline. The delay of this policy will not lower prices but simply keep them from increasing due to more government regulation. I urge the President to work with House Republicans and begin enacting policies which will help Americans feel relief at the pump. In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget September the 11th in the global war on terrorism. ____________________”
