“I ran for Congress because we cannot continue to spend like we see up here in Washington, D.C. We cannot put that burden on that generation. If we don't take courageous steps here now, this year, that generation, my son's generation, my grandson's generation, if God blesses me with grandchildren, they are going to be the first generation in American history that are going to be collectively less well off than the preceding ones; and that is wrong. We Republicans have a plan, a plan that will bolster our economy. It will offer jobs, get jobs created quickly by tax cuts, tax cuts to families, small businesses, and entrepreneurs. That works. It is proven. We had bipartisan opposition here on the floor of the House last week. The American people get it. The people in the 22nd District of Texas get it. We cannot continue to mortgage our children's future.”
