Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, I rise to celebrate House Democrats' efforts to lower costs for working families across America. For months now, Democrats and the President have been working closely together to lower the prices of gas for Americans. We have focused on people's pocketbooks, not politics. As a result, gas prices have been decreasing for 5 straight weeks, down around 70 cents since last month. In fact, $3.99 a gallon is the most common price in America today. Mr. Speaker, I saw the $3.99, and lower, in the Houston area over the weekend. On average, drivers are saving $35 per month. For residents in my district, this can mean the difference between a warm family meal or going hungry. While Republicans in Congress have no solutions to lower prices and remain focused on other matters, like stripping women of their reproductive rights, House Democrats will continue delivering results for the American people. We are the party that puts people over politics. ____________________”
