Quote

Health and Human Services has an enormous amount of discretion that they have so far used to make it harder to get affordable health care. To make you buy what the government insists you must buy. That doesn`t work.

Chelsea Manning's treachery put American lives at risk and exposed some of our nation's most sensitive secrets. President Obama now leaves in place a dangerous precedent that those who compromise our national security won't be held accountable for their crimes.

We have to bring relief as fast as possible to people who are struggling under Obamacare.

We have a massive heroin opioid epidemic problem in America, part of that is because of drugs coming from the cartels from the south.
Paul Ryan
Image
In a clean break from the Obama years, and frankly from the years before this president, we will keep federal spending at 20 percent of GDP, or less. That is enough. The choice is whether to put hard limits on economic growth, or hard limits on the size of government, and we choose to limit government.

We believe that the government has an important role to create the conditions that promote entrepreneurship, upward mobility, and individual responsibility.

What's missing is leadership in the White House. And the story that Barack Obama does tell, forever shifting blame to the last administration, is getting old. The man assumed office almost four years ago - isn't it about time he assumed responsibility?

Politics has become a blood sport that goes beyond just the person whose name is on the ballot.
Paul Ryan

We must solve the problem in health care by curbing out-of-control costs that erode paychecks for working families and push quality coverage out of reach for millions of Americans.

Close loopholes, close the special interest Washington carve outs and that means more incomes subject to taxation so we`re going to lower the rates on our businesses and be fair.
Paul Ryan
Image
Look, only in Washington is not raising taxes considered a tax cut. Nobody's getting a tax cut here. We're not cutting taxes. We're preventing tax increases from occurring.

I don't consult polls to tell me what my principles are or what our policies should be.

Donald Trump is basically giving voice to a lot of people who have felt that they were voiceless.
Paul Ryan
Image
The secret to understanding me is, I'm not trying to be anybody other than who I actually am. People want candid, refreshing leadership. And I've always tried to go with solutions. You know, I've always tried to say, here's how we get our economy growing, here's why we get our debt under control. That's what Mitt Romney is offering.
Paul Ryan
Image
We do not have a functioning market in the true sense of the word in health care. That's a layer of transparency that's sorely needed in America.
Paul Ryan
Image
What I'm concerned about is endless borrowing, which is going to compromise our economy not only today but in the future. Because we know the decisions we make right now really dramatically impact us in the future, and the debt is literally getting out of our control.

Donald Trump connected in ways with people no one else did.
Paul Ryan

Hope and change? We're not doing that anymore. They're doing attack and blame. And so, I just think people are going to see through this. They want real leadership. They want us to get this country on the right track.

Everyone, everyone is equal. Everyone has a place. No one is written off because there is worth and goodness in every life. Straight from the declaration of independence, that is the Republican ideal. And if we won't defend it, who will?

There is no doubt our democracy can be very messy and America does remain a sharply divided country.
