Speaker 1: Over the weekend, eight Democrat mayors some cities in Pennsylvania, Ohio,
Speaker 1: West Virginia, and Kentucky wrote a joint OpEd that appeared
Speaker 1: in a Washington Post. These gang of eight mayors claim,
Speaker 1: we need a Marshall Plan for Middle America. For those
Speaker 1: of you who went to public school and explain, after
Speaker 1: World War Two, American taxpayers spent thirteen billion dollars to
Speaker 1: rebuild Europe under the direction of General George Marshall, who
Speaker 1: got all kinds of accolades. Are being able to figure
Speaker 1: out how to spend thirteen billion dollars, So that's some
Speaker 1: sort of unique achievement. So today we got eight Democrat
Speaker 1: mayors wanting a Marshall Plan for their cities. It boils
Speaker 1: down to what it always boils down to money, your
Speaker 1: money bailing them out. They want sixty billion a year
Speaker 1: for the next ten years to spend on their wish list.
Speaker 1: Some of the money would go toward their environmentalist Waco agenda.
Speaker 1: Some of them would seed regional investment, which means that
Speaker 1: cronies of these mayors would get very rich. I'll forget this.
Speaker 1: We've seen what were millions of new jobs and opportunities
Speaker 1: that resulted from lower taxes and fewer regulations on businesses
Speaker 1: and individuals that produced record unemployment across the board, with
Speaker 1: jobs returning to our shoes. Last thing we need yet
Speaker 1: a big government welfare plan for Democrats cities. That scheme
Speaker 1: fails every time it's tried. I'm tired of paying for it.
Speaker 1: You should be too,
