Our veterans deserve the very best, and that means ensuring that America's veterans receive high-quality services and cares when they come back home.
Evidently there is no need for delay, no need for further study, if the government takes a loss and Wall Street makes a profit, but it is absolutely necessary to delay if homeowners might have a chance to cut their mortgages and stay in their homes. This is wrong, and it is time to fight back!
I learned early on what debt means, how vulnerable it makes people, what the security of owning a home means.
The need for comprehensive reform must not blind us to the urgency of addressing the massive debt that's already crushing our young people.
Credit cards are like snakes: Handle 'em long enough, and one will bite you.
The poor pay more, and that's one of the reasons people get trapped at the bottom of the economic ladder.

Americans are fighters. We're tough, resourceful and creative, and if we have the chance to fight on a level playing field, where everyone pays a fair share and everyone has a real shot, then no one - no one can stop us.
