Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Tax Identity Theft Awareness Week, and I urge my colleagues to join me in working to reduce this invasive crime. Floridians suffer from some of the highest rates of identity theft in the country, with over 70,000 people filing complaints of identity theft last year. Whether they shop at neighborhood mom-and-pop stores or large retailers, Americans deserve to buy what they need without living in fear of having given away private information or being compromised. That is why I introduced the Safe ID Act, in order to address the growing problem of identity theft and tax fraud. I urge my colleagues to join me in supporting this bill and other commonsense efforts to stop this heinous crime. ____________________”
