I mean, look, Nancy Pelosi said in the very beginning this is going to be the most open, honest and ethical Congress in history. And what we’re seeing is she’s breaking that promise every day. Eric Cantor Read Quote
What this bill says is it reiterates again the deadline, and that the Senate should act before the deadline, and that’s what the American people are expecting. Eric Cantor Read Quote
Again, the American people expect us to do what they are doing. It’s tightening the belt, it’s learning how to do more with less. That’s a reality today, and we’ve got to do that in order to get the private sector growing. Eric Cantor Read Quote

You know, there are people making a lot of money in this country who can actually afford their own health care. We are in a situation where we got a safety net in place in this country for people who frankly don’t need one. We got to focus on making sure we got a safety net for those who actually need it. Eric Cantor Read Quote
