Political Quotes

On the recordNovember 1, 2011
Madam President, the first amendment we will be considering today is the Coburn amendment to reduce funding for the rural development mission area by $1 billion, or 41 percent, spread equally over the agency. I am opposing this amendment. This is not the time to curtail essential programs that support jobs and incomes in our rural areas. So I will oppose this amendment, and I urge my colleagues to do so as well. I would now like to yield to Senator Sherrod Brown of Ohio. The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. The Senator from Ohio.
