In Their Words
What they have said, on the record
“Tom Paine's writings inspired the American people to break free from tyrannical rule and establish a new nation based on democratic self-governance Our legislation, which is now one step closer to becoming law, finally honors this absurdly unsung patriot with a dazzling memorial on the National Mall, cementing his legacy as indispensable to our country's very existence.”
“I first introduced this bill when my constituent was scammed out of her retirement savings, only to be hit with a massive federal tax penalty on that stolen money. When scammers, hucksters and fraudsters cheat our people out of their hard-earned savings, the federal government shouldn't re-victimize survivors with taxes that only add to the financial and psychological burdens they carry”
