My political views have since I was a kid someway or another reflected the concerns of Tea Party movement.

Whether it's a penalty or a tax, it's all one in the same. It's coming out of somebody's hard-earned money in their pocketbooks and that's the point. So in some ways, to me, it's a distinction without a difference.

From Mike Lee

I think declaring a no fly zone over foreign soil is tantamount to an act of war.

From Mike Lee

The American people want a balanced budget. They want Congress to stop this barbaric practice of perpetual deficit spending. It really, if you think about it, is a form of taxation without representation. We fought a war over that issue and we won that war.

From Mike Lee

I want to be one that is willing to do things that are not easy but that need to be done.

From Mike Lee

When you have a country that's been accustomed to government spending at a certain level, it is really hard to ratchet it back.

From Mike Lee

I would vote against raising the national debt ceiling. Again, this is about mortgaging the future of unborn generations of Americans. It's a form of taxation without representation. I don't think we can do that.

From Mike Lee

I don't want a government shutdown. I don't think anyone does.

From Mike Lee

You know, in a business, you have to operate on the basis of voluntary investment by individuals in a cause. With government, there is no voluntary effort to invest capital. It's just taken and invested. And the same accountability is not at play. The same natural forces in the economy are not at play.

From Mike Lee

We can't legislate the creation of jobs, but we can legislate things that will allow jobs to be created.
