Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, we are on the final couple of weeks, the home stretch, with regard to our big, beautiful bill. There are going to be a lot of debates as to what we should do. Some people actually want to expand programs which, in our current crisis, is unbelievable for a Republican to do. However, I am going to address which tax cuts we have. Different tax cuts do different things. We have tax credits to encourage manufacturing. We have tax credits to encourage more work. We have tax credits to encourage more research. We have tax cuts to encourage more children. However, there are some people who want tax cuts to encourage State and local governments to spend more money and raise taxes. When I was home over the weekend, I talked to one of my county executives. He said: Glenn, don't let it happen. He is a conservative county executive, and he is trying to hold down the spending on the county level, and here the people in Washington are talking about encouraging more State and local taxes. Please, Mr. Speaker, stand up and fight. Do not encourage our State and local governments to raise taxes. ____________________”
