Karen Finney Quotes on Congress (2 Quotes)

The hypocrisy couldn't be more clear after continuously rejecting Democratic proposals that would have helped millions of American working families deal with skyrocketing gas prices, President Bush and Republicans in Congress have finally seen the light on the need to address the problem.

Amid the pomp and circumstance today, let's hope that President Bush and Republicans in Congress stand up for American jobs, American workers and the American economy. It's time to put the needs of hard working Americans ahead of politics. Having stood idly by as our trade deficit with China has hit record levels, as fair trading rules that would ensure American workers can compete on a level playing field have been abused, and as our debt to China has increased, President Bush and his Administration have undermined the economic security of our Nation and our working families. Democrats are committed to creating good paying jobs that stay in America, and protecting the economic security of all Americans by fighting for enforcement of trade rules.
