More quotes by Jennifer Granholm
I understand that Republicans-running-against-Obamacare-in-order-to-save-Medicare is a clever jujitsu. But how long will they play out that argument before they get back to the economy?
Jennifer Granholm
With Michigan's economic future on the line, we can't afford to have our 500 local school districts marching in different directions. Instead, we need a high standards, mandatory curriculum to get all our students on the road to higher education and a good paying job.
Jennifer Granholm
Every single country that has an auto industry is stepping forward to help that auto industry. Why wouldn't we help this industry too, because it needs 3.5 million jobs.
Jennifer Granholm
It may be tempting to look back and wring our hands over missed opportunities for change in the preceding decades. But, I'm not interested at looking in the rearview mirror except to learn.
Jennifer Granholm
I have not made any suggestions about climate change. This is more about blending or shifting the conversation about the environment versus the economy. It's just such an old, outdated conversation.
Jennifer Granholm
We're on the cusp, on the brink, of enormous change in this country.
Jennifer Granholm
I say Democrats should not be afraid to talk about the morality of life, of caring for children who are born. It seems the Republican obsession with being pro-life lasts about nine months. After that, it’s each baby for herself.
Jennifer Granholm
Republicans are definitely pro-birth (they’ll do everything they can to make sure that that baby comes out, regardless of how it got in), but are they pro-life? Can you be pro-life and vote to cut funding that supports the life of a child?
Jennifer Granholm
In Congress, while the House’s proposed defense budget calls for significant increases, it also cuts 11 billion dollars from veterans spending - including healthcare and disability pay. Be clear: we can’t equate spending on veterans with spending on defense.
Jennifer Granholm
There's only so far you can go before you say enough is enough.
Jennifer Granholm
Thank you for the opportunity for the Democratic Party and progressives to reclaim the votes of the sane citizens of these United States.
Jennifer Granholm
From a reality perspective, I'm sure part of that is true, but this is the largest blackout in U.S. history. If that is not a signal that we have got a problem that needs to be fixed, I don't know what is.
Jennifer Granholm
Those who devote their lives to serving our country, children, and neighborhoods are giving back. They have answered the call to serve.
Jennifer Granholm
We aren't leveraging this great economic engine, the strongest economy in the world. And yet we have this totally weak response. We import $500 billion a year more in products than we export.
Jennifer Granholm
The Kerry campaign was a difficult one to be involved with, it is a real juggling act to set the tone and pace of these things accurately.
Jennifer Granholm
When I was fresh out of law school, I had a burning desire to do something important, to have an impact in some way, but I didn't know what it was.
Jennifer Granholm
Caring for veterans shouldn’t be a partisan issue. It should an American one.
Jennifer Granholm
Voter suppression laws, overzealous filibuster use, you name it - the Republicans use every tactic they can to stop our democracy from actually selecting the person with the most support.
Jennifer Granholm
I have a problem with Mitt Romney. And it's big problem - one that extends beyond our ideological differences. My big concern is that Mitt Romney wants to become president for no other reason than because there's a possibility he can win.
Jennifer Granholm
We need to continue to make the case that Michigan is where you ought to be.
