In Their Words
What they have said, on the record
“You are the employers. Your government representatives work for you.”
“I tend to believe that this is not going to get fixed in my lifetime or my children's lifetime. And that's who I think about. That's why I'm here running for office - because I have kids. I'm away from my family, and lonely on the road, and going into areas that make me nervous sometimes. And I'm doing it because I love my country”
“I have no problem telling the president of the United States - even if he's from my own party - to go to hell. The role of Congress is not to be the president's bitch”
“I never expected to run for Congress, but I also never expected to see the kind of bullshit coming down from my government that I”
“I want to make Congress do the job that it is supposed to do, which is to act as a check against abuses of authority by the executive branch, and also I want to get in there and do the job that I did at the state bar, which is root out corruption and hold people accountable for, you know, breaking the law.”
“I found out that if I was going to run for office, I was going to have to quit my job. That was a really tough decision, because I loved my job. But I love my country more.”

“I believe that your loyalty should be to the people in your district and your state and your country over that of your party, and in my opinion, he is very, very good at repeating Republican talking points, but has failed to speak out.”
“I’m tired of sitting around and waiting for Congress to grow a spine. They can borrow mine”
“My first order of business will be to make Congress start doing its job”
