We all bear some responsibility, and we need to try to clean up our act and try to bring more civility to our National Republican Congressional Committee, and frankly, to our dialogue, it's not too much to expect leaders to bring us together, to unite our country, to find a way to reach out to us, to our greater good, and make sure that we rise above all of the accusations, the hate and finger-pointing.

The advantage of the free market system is that people invest their capital, they create jobs by investing their capital, and hopefully they get a return on that investment. I don't think there's anything wrong with good old American capitalism.

Congress should just do its job and pass a transportation-infrastructure bill - a regular bill that doesnt borrow money and mortgage my future.

I decided to join the military to give back to my country and help pay for college.

The military taught me that teamwork is important, which is why I work with both Republicans and Democrats in Congress to get things done. It also taught me that everyone brings a different perspective, whether I agree with it or not, which helps me bridge the divide in Congress.

Yes and no. Because America has only about 1 percent of the population serving in the military, it is hard for many civilians to understand the sacrifices military families make. However, my experience is that after the Vietnam War, the public learned that they should support the military whether or not they support the war. You've seen that outpouring of support for the veterans of both Iraq and Afghanistan.

My advice is: 1. Be judicious in the use of military force. 2. When military force is required, use overwhelming force. 3. Do not micromanage military leaders. 4. Ensure your battle plans will win the conflict and win the peace.

We need to listen to each other, no matter who takes the majority, it will be a razor-thin majority and hopefully that will mean people will come together -- Republicans and Democrats -- to get things done.

I congratulate Congresswoman-Elect Debbie Lesko and look forward to welcoming Debbie Lesko to National Republican groups conference, debbie Lesko is a strong conservative whose values truly reflect those of the voters in Arizona’s Eighth District. The NRCC was proud to support Debbie Lesko and National Republican groups targeted and early investments proved to be a difference maker in the race.

What we gave up was an adult in the room, i hope we can get someone else who will be responsible.

I've actually cut my personal pay individually; we didn't vote on that, but I've done that individually. It's important that folks know that we're going to roll up our sleeves and work on things, and members of Congress are going to sacrifice our own budgets first.
