Liberals in Congress have spent the past three decades pandering to environmental extremists. The policies they have put in place are in large part responsible for the energy crunch we are seeing today. We have not built a refinery in this country for 30 years.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
We do thank our men and women in uniform. And I thank them. I thank this House today that approved a bill that will allow for a pay raise for our military. We are grateful for that and for the actions of this body.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
We must be certain that we all realize that our enemy is not an enemy that is located in one single place. There are terrorist cells all around the globe.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
Every town has become a border town and every State has become a border State.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
Madam Speaker, it is time to halt illegal entry into this country. It is time to halt the flow of illegal drugs and weapons into this great Nation, and it is time to secure our borders.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
Mr. Speaker, we are a blessed Nation. We have not suffered another attack on our soil since September 11, and we are grateful. We have killed or captured dozens of members of al Qaeda and the Taliban. Our military and intelligence forces are working both hard and smart.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
A conservative vision to tech issues assumes the imperfection of mankind and a preference for markets - not politics - to drive outcomes.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
Citizens United fought to defend our right to free speech - and won a great victory in the United States Supreme Court.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
There are some that feel like human activity is the cause for carbon emissions, and because of that, we need to revert to where we were in the 1870s for carbon emissions. I just choose to disagree with that.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
I often quote Ronald Reagan, who is pretty close to my favorite President ever, I will have to say that, but one of my favorite remarks he ever made was that when you look at Federal programs, there is nothing so close to eternal life on Earth as a Federal Government program.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
People are probably going to realize they can live with a lot less government than what they thought they needed.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
I've talked with a lot of teachers, classroom teachers after the Sandy Hook situation, and they say, look, we need to be looking at mental health.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
Republicans rejected calls for amnesty and we've fought efforts to provide illegal aliens with taxpayer funded benefits. The American people are far closer to our Republican approach to border security than they are to Nancy Pelosi's approach.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
To get our economy back on track and keep it functioning properly without the problems of our financial institutions, we need reasonable regulations that will protect Main Street while at the same time allow Wall Street to do what it does best - make money for American investors.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
Ironically, one of the clearer threats to consumer privacy is the government's largely unchecked ability to collect your sensitive information without due process.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
Republicans are not going to play I-told-you-so, but it is pretty obvious that the tax reductions passed in 2003 helped Americans dig out of a recession and get back to work.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
Most website developers say an aggregator website, such as what healthcare.gov is, could be built easily for a half a million dollars. They have spent a half a billion dollars.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
We need to work to repeal Obamacare and replace it with the kind of health care choices that the American people want. That doesn't include government-run health care.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
The right of liberty is God-given and immortal. It cannot be regulated. Or controlled. It cannot be banned. And it must not be restricted.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
Some people like to drive a Ford, not a Ferrari, and some people like to drink out of a red Solo cup, not out of a crystal stem.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
My goodness, the Democrats have just become the party of punishment, and they are carrying that to the extreme when it comes to health care.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
We in Tennessee know that low taxes, less government, and less spending are the ways to grow our economy.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
This majority is working for America, and one of those ways is we have tremendously low unemployment. This economy has created millions of new jobs, and we are expecting growth this first quarter of somewhere higher than 4 percent.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
I think people have found it very interesting that those that enforce ObamaCare, those that wrote Obamacare, are not a part of ObamaCare.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
Republicans are for clean water, clean air, and clean energy. We are not for taxing people out of their house, home and business to pay for it. And that is the fundamental difference between the Democrats and Republicans on this issue.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
Here in Tennessee, instead of the big spending, big government, job killing agenda of the Obama Administration, Tennesseans have tightened their belts and are struggling to find jobs that will enable them to support their families.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
Any spending should be debated openly on the floor of the House and voted on in open session, with the American people having a chance to watch and listen.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
Congress, of course, is not bound to accept the president's budget figures, but the House has the sole power to appropriate funds for spending, and it is a duty that should not be ignored.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
This is now a global war on terror and, indeed, it is important, it is imperative that we win in the battles in Afghanistan and that we win in the battles in Iraq. And as the gentleman from Georgia has mentioned, this is not something that is going to be quick and easy.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
I support safeguarding users' personally identifiable information and sensitive data like health or financial records. I also believe the government has a responsibility to punish deceptive and unfair practices that defy reasonable expectations about consumers' privacy.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
Can any of us even imagine, after Pearl Harbor, President Roosevelt suggesting we negotiate a resolution or that we could simply prosecute those involved? Of course it is unimaginable. We are right to be in the Middle East, and we are right to treat this as the war it is.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
More people are working in jobs that are interactive technology based or find a basis in intellectual property.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
Our tax policies, the tax relief and reform we passed in 2003 and 2005, helped get government out of the way of America's entrepreneurs, and our unemployment rate is now lower than it was in the 1970s, the 1980s, and the 1990s.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
Our creative communities in Nashville, in L.A. and New York, and in Austin, those are communities you want to see stay viable.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
It is Republicans that have led the fight for women's equality. Go back through history and look at who was the first woman to ever vote, elected to office, go to Congress.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
Every new rule, mandate, and regulatory edict is one more obstacle that small business owners, entrepreneurs, and job creators have to swallow.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
Seldom does a member of either party have to be called down for inappropriate behavior on the House floor.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
If you see something suspicious, don't just walk by. Notify authorities. Get help. You could save innocent lives.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
Yes, what has happened is we have moved from responding to these terrorist attacks as acts of civil disobedience to getting to the point after September 11 that we said, no, this is not just civil disobedience, this is an act of war.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
Technology is characterized by constant change, rapid innovation, creative destruction, and revolutionary products.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
Liberals are very much afraid of conservative women, and here's the reason why - more people agree with us. They want the government to have less control over their lives.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
New Hampshire is one of the birthplaces of American freedom and independence - a place with a love and a passion for liberty.
Quote by -Marsha Blackburn
Reclassifying the Internet as a telecommunications service will have dangerous repercussions for years to come.
