Like my colleagues, I support a robust trade agenda.

We are looking for new and innovative ways where we can help people in this country, and I think we need to keep an open mind as to how we do that.

Our nation's welfare programs should be focused on one thing helping people in need find work, so they can escape poverty and move up the economic ladder.

I support a timely, seamless renewal of AGOA, and all of us do.

we appreciate your fighting for our growers in Washington State.

This is a significant opportunity, I think, to increase our exports in environmental goods and lower prices for consumers.

if an agreement comes to this Congress without TPA, it is dead on arrival.

They have to learn through a press release from the Ways and Means Committee of the United States Congress...

I think that's important. But you didn't provide it to them because they learned it in a press release.

I believe that you are an honest man and that you want to do the right thing and that you took this job to improve the IRS and serve the American people.

And I talked to some business folks yesterday, and explained the need for TPA and how important it is for us to proceed forward with TPP.
