More quotes by Mitch McConnell
Tiger Woods and John Edwards had a better year than the stimulus bill.
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
The minimum wage is mostly an entry-level wage for young people.
Mitch McConnell
Sometime in the near future we'll have a vote on repealing Obamacare, essentially the same vote that we had in 2015. I would remind everyone that in that proposal there's a two-year delay, a two-year delay which would give us the opportunity to work out a complete replacement on a bipartisan basis with our Democratic friends.
Mitch McConnell
For four years, Americans have waited for the faintest light to flicker at the end of the tunnel. And this President has let them down again and again and again. It is time to move on. It is time for a leader who will lead. That leader is Mitt Romney.
Mitch McConnell
Are we still a country that takes risks, that innovates, that believes anything is possible? Or are we a country that is resigned to whatever liberty the government decides to dish out?
Mitch McConnell
It seems with every new day, we have a new veto threat from the president.
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
This heinous crime should be of particular concern to all of us. . . . I know my colleagues will agree that the murder of Americans overseas cannot go unpunished. I will continue to closely follow developments in this case[.]
Mitch McConnell
The money that goes into Social Security is not the government's money. it's your money. You paid for it.
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
The president feels not only do we need to change these rogue regimes, but even our friendly allies, who really basically have, sort of, benign dictatorships, need to get with the program if they want to have long-term security and prosperity from terrorism.
Mitch McConnell
The new troops in Iraq need to be Iraqi troops.
Mitch McConnell
After adding trillions to the debt on big-government policies most Americans didn't ask for and which we couldn't afford, Democratic leaders say they need more money, which they intend to take from small business, even though small businesses create the majority of new jobs.
Mitch McConnell
More young people believe they'll see a U.F.O. than that they'll see their own Social Security benefits.
Mitch McConnell
Obama hasn't been working to earn reelection, he's been working to earn a spot on the PGA tour!
Mitch McConnell
It's a shame that the president doesn't embrace the effort to reduce spending. None of us like using situations like the sequester or the debt ceiling or the operation of government to try to engage the president to deal with this.
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
It's important to remember that some of our best sources in the war against radical Islamic terrorism are Muslims, both in America and overseas.
Mitch McConnell
I'm really proud of this Supreme Court and the way they've been dealing with the issue of First Amendment political speech.
Mitch McConnell
