More quotes by Scott Walker
My problem with public sector union leaders, the bosses, has been they stood in the way of protecting the taxpayer.
Scott Walker
Now things have changed for the better. Our reforms end seniority and tenure so we can hire and fire based on merit and pay based on performance. That means we can put the best and the brightest in our classrooms - and we can keep them there.
Scott Walker
Chief executives that are successful make good chief executives.
Scott Walker
I'm certainly an imperfect man. And it's only by the blood of Jesus Christ that I've been redeemed from my sins. So I know that God doesn't call me to do a specific thing, God hasn't given me a list, a Ten Commandments of things to act on the first day. What God calls us to do is follow his will. And ultimately that's what I'm going to try to do.
Scott Walker
I don't want to be a slave to history or facts. As long as I'm getting a good cursory understanding of what it is and I'm not drifting too far away at certain points, then I can play with the idea and take it anywhere I want to.
Scott Walker
My kids were targeted on Facebook by protesters.

Political leaders in Illinois kicked the can down the road, raised taxes, and ignored fiscal realities. Now, they're realizing the consequences of their actions: credit downgrades and negative outlooks.
Scott Walker
The unions say 'last hired - first fired,', we say hire and fire based on merit. We want the best and brightest in the classroom.
Scott Walker
I just think this is people who are chronically looking for ways to be upset about things.
Scott Walker
But Mitt Romney understands, like I understand, that people - not governments - create jobs.
Scott Walker
Matching sounds in your head is made a lot easier with all the technology. It is the nonelectronic noises that are challenging, as you have to find ways of communicating those to the people you're working with.
Scott Walker
The music has to be as interesting. It has to keep taking you into places that you're at least not used to.
Scott Walker
I have not made any plans for the future, and my wife would kill me if I announced anything before that.
Scott Walker
Governors should be defined not just by what they do and say, but who they surround themselves with.
Scott Walker
I've often heard the complaint from both Democrat and Republican voters alike that they hate the fact that politicians get into office and they - and they're fearful, they're fearful to make tough decisions because they think more about the next election than they do about the next-generation.
Scott Walker
When we win, it will tell every politician in America that if you are bold, if you do the right thing, if you tackle the tough issues, there will be people standing there right with you.
Scott Walker
You have phantom income each year. No money is being put in your pocket, but you have to take some money out of your pocket to pay Uncle Sam because the tax is paid based on accretion.
Scott Walker
Collective bargaining isn't a right, it is an expensive entitlement. Once and for all, we are giving the taxpayers a voice in this debate. We put the power back in the hands of the people.
Scott Walker
In times of crisis what has made America amazing has been the fact that, throughout our history, throughout the more than 200 years of our history, there have been men and women of courage, who stood up and decided it was more important to look out for the future of their children and their grandchildren than their own political futures.
Scott Walker
It's time to put our differences aside and find ways to work together to move Wisconsin forward.
