I saw people, and I can't name them of course, that maybe were skeptical at first that were really sold on Donald Trump.
I've heard enough of Democrats claiming a balanced approach.
As a congressman, why should I be forced to peruse cable stations and blog sites for information on the discussions and then be asked to vote for the deal when I have no input and no time to know even what's in it?
I certainly don't think that taxpayers should subsidize abortions.
In a tripartite government with its checks and balances, we have lost the balances.
We love a growing private sector that allows people freedom of choice, to choose their health plan, to choose their doctor, to choose their hospital.
We need to restore the Bush tax cuts or actually make them permanent.
We all say that we want to repeal Obamacare, and we would all love a clean, full repeal. But the truth is, sometimes it's kind of like making sausage. You have to do it one step at a time. You've got to approach it from the standpoint that you make substantial gains today, and then the next opportunity, you make more.
President Obama is more and more beginning to look like the hypocrite-in-chief when it comes to the war on terrorism. All sorts of things that he criticized the president for, he's actually continued and even extended. This drone attack program, he's got it at the highest level ever.
The polls are with us on this. They say the American people, more than anything, want to see spending cuts rather than tax increases.
They want to wipe - in fact, the Democrat Party in their own platform last year wiped even - any reference to God completely from their platform.
I can't think of anything right now that could be more damaging for our economy than passing and putting into effect and implementing Obamacare.
I introduced H.Res 430, a congressional resolution calling upon the president to declare a National Day of Prayer for Law Enforcement.
Washington faces many challenges these days, and today's United States Senate needs more trusted conservatives going there to make decisions and choices that put the people first and not the business-as-usual crowd.
If we're going to change leadership, we need to do it in a very systematic and organized way.
There is a profiteer when it comes to oil. 36 to 63 cents per gallon is swept off the top. And who profits from that? The government profits from it. And what does the government do with much of that money? It puts it into so-called 'alternative energy,' with so-called phony 'green jobs' that we're yet to see being produced.
What happens is, in my own case - my own LLCs - the income flows to my personal tax return, whatever is left over after taxes are paid, I feed my family on the one hand, and on the other hand, I reinvest in my business.
I think always, when you have a candidate promising free stuff, and another promising less stuff or nothing, the one who promises more is always going to have the advantage.
Public servants should always be accountable and responsible for what they are advocating, and I challenge the American people to demand this from their representatives.
The Freedom Caucus, like many of the members, feel like that we have too much of a top-heavy, power-based type of leadership program where the decisions are made exclusively at the top and that members voices are not heard, which means that our constituents' voices are not heard: those that we represent.
