Getting our affected Gulf Coast states the aid they need to help victims and rebuild communities continues to be our highest priority.

I think Tom Reynolds may have been talking about what his feelings are, ... Social Security is something very important. It's something we've talked about doing, and when we decide to move forward we'll let the press know.

Cagey trial lawyers have figured out there's a pretty good likelihood their case - no matter what its merit - will literally get its day in court because of favorable judges.

Hurricane Katrina is a wake-up call for our nation. It reminded us of the power of Mother Nature and the need for federal, state and local governments to always be prepared... As we go about rebuilding the Gulf Coast, we welcome the president's proposals as well as the thoughts of state and local leaders.
Dennis Hastert -
I submit to you that even today, as tough as things seem, it is much better to be us than them, ... Why do I say this? First, they have no plan. Second, if they ever announce one it will be consistent with their philosophy of bigger and bigger government and higher and higher taxes.

I would again urge Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi to join in this effort and not to boycott this Select Bipartisan Committee.
Dennis Hastert -
