Patty Murray actually said...

"Are we expanding opportunity for all Americans? No matter where you come from, we are all better off if everyone in our society has the opportunity to succeed."

"I invite all of our colleagues--Democrats and Republicans--to join me this year in building on the bipartisan work we have done and investing in our national priorities."

"the economy is improving. My biggest concern--and I know many, of my colleagues share this--is that it is not improving for everyone."

"I hope we can work together on a bipartisan basis to create jobs, grow the economy, invest in our middle class, and expand opportunity for more Americans."
