Political Quotes

“this Congress has passed and the President has signed into law a tax cut that takes care of the millionaires but leaves many of our children and our veterans behind. Right today, young Americans are serving this Nation in Iraq with young children waiting for them here at home. And ironically, many of those children will not receive any benefit from the child tax credit that was contained in that tax bill. Think of that. Young Americans fighting for this country and their children are going to be left out of the benefit. Not only children, but veterans are getting the shaft. It is shameful, it is shameful that we would drive this country into debt, take care of our millionaires, and leave our children and our veterans behind. It is time for the people of this country, Mr. Speaker, to wake up and realize what is happening.”
