Steve Kagen: “But that requires judgment. It requires good judgment at every level of our government, not just a mayor or a county…”

On the recordMay 14, 2008
But that requires judgment. It requires good judgment at every level of our government, not just a mayor or a county board member, but here in Congress and in the White House. And this is why this next election, I'm looking forward to having the opportunity to work with a President who has good judgment and a philosophy that believes in prevention, not just in health care, but by preventing going to war, you prevent human tragedy and you save tremendous amounts of money.
