The people of our state are not convinced that state government, county government, local government has done all they can with the money we already give them, rather than the money that we have before."
Life
"I am not going to make any commitments to the teachers union to do anything until they do something that's other than in their own self- interest. And everything they have done so far is in their self-interests, and that's it."
