To put everyone in government housing and food stamps and bring them in from around the world I think is a mistake. To give of your own money, I've given to my church. My church has helped people that came from Bosnia. That's a good thing.

More quotes by Rand Paul
Let me be clear: I support the Civil Rights Act because I overwhelmingly agree with the intent of the legislation, which was to stop discrimination in the public sphere and halt the abhorrent practice of segregation and Jim Crow laws.
Rand Paul
I really think that discrimination and racism is a horrible thing. And I don't want any form of it in our government, in our public sphere.
Rand Paul
I think we need to treat everybody with dignity.
Rand Paul
The source of the problem is in Syria. Raqqa is the headquarters of ISIL, which is a lethal terrorist organization, now army. If you don't go after them over there, they're going to hit us over here, and there's no substitute for that in my view.
Rand Paul
I think we're never fully protected, but I think we need to do everything we can to stop threats to us.
Rand Paul
John McCain is the guy that has advocated for war everywhere. He would bankrupt the nation.
Rand Paul
The problem is that in our country, they make it almost impossible for politicians to win anything. In England it's easier to win a libel suit.
Rand Paul
I will advocate for Kentucky's interests.
Rand Paul
I'm here in Whoopi Goldberg's office trying to choose some shoes. We've seen [Marco] Rubio has those cool new boots and I don't want to be outdone.
Rand Paul
Al Qaeda has been placed on the run, but not destroyed.
Rand Paul
I have allowed the president to pick his political appointees…But I will not sit quietly and let him shred the Constitution.
Rand Paul
I think it's a huge mistake. I think regime change in Syria, and this is what - I've been saying this for several years now. In 2013 when we first went in, I said, you are going to give arms to the allies of al Qaida, to radical jihadists? That's crazy.
Rand Paul
When you couple this militarization of law enforcement with an erosion of civil liberties and due process that allows the police to become judge and jury - national security letters, no-knock searches, broad general warrants, pre-conviction forfeiture - we begin to have a very serious problem on our hands.
Rand Paul
I would introduce and support legislation to send Roe v. Wade back to the states.
Rand Paul
The U.S. should never get involved where we have no clear national interest. We should not intervene militarily in a country like Syria, where we can’t separate friend from foe and might end up arming the very people who hate us the most.
Rand Paul
We shouldn't be fearful of freedom, we shouldn't be fearful of individual liberty.
Rand Paul
Well, there’s 10 - there’s 10 different - there’s 10 different titles, you know, to the Civil Rights Act, and nine out of 10 deal with public institutions. And I’m absolutely in favor of one deals with private institutions, and had I been around, I would have tried to modify that.
Rand Paul
Toppling secular dictators in the Middle East has only led to chaos and the rise of radical Islam.
Rand Paul
The Founders never intended for Americans to trust their government. Our entire Constitution was predicated on the notion that government was a necessary evil, to be restrained and minimized as much as possible.
Rand Paul
I think it's a real debate how big NATO should be and whether or not it's more provocative than good. Whenever there's a war fought, our soldiers fight it and our dollars pay for it. And, really, our decisions need to be about our national security.
