More quotes by Mitch McConnell
And this year, when we end the cruel, defeatist practice of passing children who cannot read into fourth grade, and when our most diligent students begin to graduate from high school in 11 years, and get a head start on college costs with the dollars they earned through their hard work, others will take notice of Indiana yet again.
Mitch McConnell
While other state governments stiff their vendors, close parks, delay tax refunds, and ignore unacceptably poor service levels, Indiana state employees are setting national standards for efficiency.
Mitch McConnell
I've often wished we had more women in the Senate.

Mitch McConnell
Forcing free market plans to compete with these government-run programs would create an unlevel playing field and inevitably doom true competition.
Mitch McConnell

Mitch McConnell
We have a debt the size of our economy, which makes us look a lot like Greece.
Mitch McConnell

Mitch McConnell
Tiger Woods and John Edwards had a better year than the stimulus bill.
Mitch McConnell

Mitch McConnell
What we do know is that the American people, regardless of how they feel about the abortion issue, don't think that taxpayer money ought to be used to pay for abortions.
Mitch McConnell
We didn't make much progress on the country's agenda. And in my view it's because the Senate basically hadn't done much of anything, with a couple of exceptions, for the last four years [of Barack Obama's presidency]. And that's going to change.
Mitch McConnell
Public disclosure of campaign contributions and spending should be expedited so voters can judge for themselves what is appropriate.
Mitch McConnell
We're living under the Obama economy. Any CEO in America with a record like this after three years on the job would be graciously shown the door. This president blames the managers instead. He blames the folks on the shop floor. He blames the weather.
Mitch McConnell
If you believe one of the biggest problems confronting the country is overregulation by this administration, the single most effective way to begin to rein in the aggressive regulators, who in my view have done great damage to this economy, is in the bills that fund the regulators.
Mitch McConnell
I don't think there's any equivalency between the way that the Russians conduct themselves and the way the United States does.
Mitch McConnell
The administration still wants to govern from the far-left and that's going to produce kind a partisan result here in the Congress.
