The Legislative Audit Advisory (Commission) is a sham. The Legislature basically audits itself and the citizens of Pennsylvania do not have a complete and independent account of where all the money goes.

The citizens are in a battle with the legislature, and the citizens are winning. If this is the first step, we will take it. But we are going to keep on going... until they pay back every dime.

I love the long shot. The pig and I will be out all over Pennsylvania for the next couple of weeks.

It's never been before the court before, and will be before the court now.

It's my belief that the lieutenant governor is incapable of stepping into the shoes of the governor if that should become necessary.

This is very, very, very good, and I thank Mr. Casey for his support.

There must be ways to cut legislative staff in order to accomplish reductions in the cost of the Legislature. Pennsylvania taxpayers should demand that.

This is one of those hidden perks. There is no evidence that it's necessary. It goes right into his pocket, and that's not what it was designed for.

Don't let anybody tell you that the Legislature did this out of some sense of good government. They're running for their political lives. ... There needs to be some new blood in this place.

Every imaginable expense is taken care of by the budget.
