Political Quotes

“This week's address to Congress was one of the longest addresses to Congress ever, yet there was no real plan or blueprint for how we are actually going to lower costs. We heard a lot about Greenland and golden tickets and something about Mars, but we didn't actually hear about lowering costs because the actions of this administration will actually raise costs for every American. If you cut Medicaid, for instance, not only will you cut off care for millions, it will raise the healthcare premiums of every American, not just the ones on Medicaid. Health costs will go up. If you fire half the people who administer Social Security and undermine it for our seniors, costs will go up. If you continue the brain drain in our government and fire Federal workers who protect consumers or do critical safety or health research, you will make us less safe and costs will go up. Mr. Speaker, this administration's policies will directly lead to costs going up for all families. Americans deserve better. ____________________”
