More From Mike Pence

America Is Less Safe Today Than It Was The Day That Barack Obama Became President Of The United States. It's Absolutely Inarguable.

Donald Trump Has Made It Clear, He Wants To Make A Priority Of National Security, Rebuilding Our Military, But He Wants To Do It In A Fiscally Responsible Way.

Donald Trump Understands The Frustrations And The Hopes Of The American People.

I'm Going To Bring My Best Efforts And Do My Very Best Every Day To Support Our New President's Agenda And To Hopefully Play Some Small Role In Making America Great Again.

I Just Have To Tell You That The Provocations By Russia Need To Be Met With American Strength. And If Russia Chooses To Be Involved And Continue, I Should Say, To Be Involved In This Barbaric Attack On Civilians In Aleppo, The United States Of America Should Be Prepared To Use Military Force To Strike Military Targets Of The Assad Regime To Prevent Them From This Humanitarian Crisis That Is Taking Place In Aleppo.

The Patriot Act Is Essential To Our Continued Success In The War On Terror Here At Home.

America Is Stronger Than Russia. Our Economy Is 16 Times Larger Than The Russian Economy.

Budgets Are Moral Documents. Federal Funding Should Reflect The Priorities And The Values Of The Majority Of The American People.

The Fact That I'd Gone Through My Own Transition As Governor Of Indiana And Had Been Informed By That Experience, I Think Was An Asset.

An Enormous Number Of People Come To The Usa Legally And Then Simply Overstay Their Visas Because We Make No Effort To Hold Them Accountable To That Or Uphold The Law.

The Director Of The Fbi...said We Can't Know For Certain Who These People Are Coming From Syria.

We Need To Act And Act Now To Get People Out Of Harm's Way.

The President Made Very Clear To Leaders In Congress From Right After The Election That Repealing And Replacing Obamacare Will Be The First Priority Of This Administration.

I Think The Relationships That We [with Donald Trump] Developed On Capitol Hill Are The Reason Why He's Asked Me To Be A Part Of The Team That's Working To Move Our Agenda Forward In The House And In The Senate.

Ronald Reagan Said A Nation Without Borders Is Not A Nation. Donald Trump Is Committed To Restoring The Borders Of America.

The Choice Couldn't Be More Clear. Americans Can Elect Someone Who Literally Personifies The Failed Establishment In Washington, D.c., Or We Can Choose A Leader Who Will Fight Every Day To Make America Great Again.

With The Rise Of Isis, Our Alliance With Turkey Is More Important Than Ever Before, The Ability To Have Access, To Move Resources Into The Region And Also, Most Importantly, To Engage Turkey Fully In The Battle Against Global Terrorism, Is - About Protecting The American People.

Because Hillary Clinton And Barack Obama Failed To Provide A Status Of Forces Agreement And Leave Sufficient Troops In There, We Are Back At War. The President Just Ordered More Troops On The Ground. We Are Back At War In Iraq. And Scott Zubowski, Whose Mom Would Always Come To Memorial Day Events In Newcastle, Indiana, To See Me, And I'd Give Her A Hug And Tell Her We're Never Going To Forget Her Son And We Never Will, Scott Zubowski And The Sacrifices The American Soldier Made Were Squandered In Iraq Because This Administration Created A Vacuum In Which Isis Was Able To Grow.

Seven Out Of 10 Americans Know The Country's Headed In The Wrong Direction, That In A Very Real Sense That This Is A Clear Choice Between Change In The Status Quo And I've Always Been Telling Crowds, The Other Side Says If You Like Your Status Quo You Can Keep It.

Donald Trump And I Would Never Support Legislation That Punished Women Who Made The Heart-breaking Choice To End A Pregnancy.

Donald Trump Is A Businessman, Not A Career Politician. He Actually Built A Business. Those Tax Returns That Were - That Came Out Publicly This Week Show That He Faced Some Pretty Tough Times 20 Years Ago. But Like Virtually Every Other Business, Including The New York Times Not Too Long Ago, He Used What's Called Net Operating Loss. We Have A Tax Code That Actually Is Designed To Encourage Entrepreneurship In This Country.

The Trump Foundation Is A Private-family Foundation. They Give Virtually Every Cent In The Trump Foundation To Charitable Causes.

Hillary Clinton And Her Husband Set Up A Private Foundation Called The Clinton Foundation. While She Was Secretary Of State, The Clinton Foundation Accepted Tens Of Millions Of Dollars From Foreign Governments And Foreign Donors. Now Y'all Need To Know Out There, This Is Basic Stuff, Foreign Donors And Certainly Foreign Governments Cannot Participate In The American Political Process.

The Truth Of The Matter Is, The Policies Of This Administration, Which Hillary Clinton And Senator Kaine Want To Continue, Have Run This Economy Into A Ditch.

I'm Not Sure That Hillary Clinton And Barack Obama Know That We're At War.

We Want A Different Type Of Leadership. We Want A Different Direction For This Country. And That's Why I Truly Do Believe That Donald Trump Will Be The President Of The United States.

My Votes Against The Education Bill And My Votes Against The Medicare Bill Got Huge Play At Home.

I Probably Got From My Mom A Passion For Public Policy And And Civic Involvement.

The Very Idea That A Child That Is Almost Born Into The World Could Still Have Their Life Taken From Them Is Just Anathema To Me, And I Can't Conscious About A Party That Supports That.

Our Enemies Will Respond Only To American Strength.

American Strength

We're [with Donald Trump] Working From Day 1, Which Will Be [monday, January 23 2017], The First Full Business Day Of The Administration, To Begin To Roll Back The Unconstitutional Executive Orders And An Avalanche Of Regulations That Have Been Stifling Growth And Jobs In Indiana And Across The Economy.

Our Primary Threat Today Is Isis. And Because Hillary Clinton Failed To Renegotiate A Status Of Forces Agreement That Would Have Allowed Some American Combat Troops To Remain In Iraq And Secure The Hard Fought Gains The American Soldier Had Won By 2009, Isis Was Able To Be Literally Conjured Up Out Of The Desert, And It's Overrun Vast Areas That The American Soldier Had Won In Operation Iraqi Freedom.

The Sanctity Proceeds Out Of The Belief... That Ancient Principle Where God Says "before You Were Formed In The Womb I Knew You," And So For The First Time In My Public Life I Sought To Stand With Great Compassion For The Sanctity Of Life.

Police Officers Are The Best Of Us. And The Men And Women, White, African-american, Asian, Latino, Hispanic, They Put Their Lives On The Line Every Single Day. And Let My Say Community Policing Is A Great Idea. It's Worked In The Hoosier State. And We Fully Support That. Donald Trump And I Are Going To Make Sure That Law Enforcement Have The Resources And The Tools To Be Able To Really Restore Law And Order To The Cities And Communities In This Nation.

Look The, The American Worker Has Been Losing - For Decades Now. We've Seen Manufacturing In Decline Here In The Industrial Midwest.

I Have Strongly Supported The Right To Keep And Bear Arms. I Truly Believe That Firearms In The Hands Of Law Abiding Citizens Makes Our Families And Our Communities More Safe, Not Less Safe.

You Know, Hoosiers Recognize Pork When We See It. And They Recognize What Bailing Out Every Failing Business In America Means - We're Burying Generations Under A Mountain Range Of Debt.

Mountain Ranges

It's Probably Why The 330,000 Members Of The Fraternal Order Of Police Endorsed Donald Trump As The Next President Of The United States Of America, Because They See His Commitment To Them.

When You Get The Economy Growing, That's When You Can Deal With The National Debt.

I Worked When I Was Congress On A Second Chance Act. We Have Got To Do A Better Job Recognizing And Correcting The Errors In The System That Do Reflect On Institutional Bias In Criminal Justice. But What - What - What Donald Trump And I Are Saying Is Let's Not Have The Reflex Of Assuming The Worst Of Men And Women In Law Enforcement. We Truly Do Believe That Law Enforcement Is Not A Force For Racism Or Division In Our Country.

The American People Know What's Necessary To Get This Economy Moving Again. It's Fiscal Discipline In Washington, D.c. And Across-the-board Tax Relief For Working Families, Small Businesses And Family Farms.

330,000 Members Of The Fraternal Order Of Police See Trump's Commitment To Law And Order. But They Also - They Also Hear The Bad Mouthing, The Bad Mouthing That Comes From People That Seize Upon Tragedy In The Wake Of Police Action Shootings As - As A Reason To - To Use A Broad Brush To Accuse Law Enforcement Of - Of Implicit Bias Or Institutional Racism. And That Really Has Got To Stop.

Donald Trump Wants To Make It Clear To The American People That, While Hillary Clinton Is Committed To Open Borders, And Amnesty, And Executive Amnesty, And More Of The Same That Has Really Harmed Our Economy, And, Frankly, As He Said, With Regard To Dangerous Individuals In This Country, Has Cost American Lives. . . .

I Never Imagined, Never Imagined I Would Have The Opportunity To Be Governor Of The State That I Love.

Hillary Clinton Are Going To Raise Taxes And Donald Trump And I Are Going To Cut Them.

Power Is An Instrument Of Fatal Consequence. It Is Confined No More Readily Than Quicksilver, And Escapes Good Intentions As Easily As Air Flows Through Mesh.

Good Intentions

Anybody Who Is Familiar With The Historical Data From The Irs Knows That Raising Income Tax Rates Will Likely Actually Reduce Federal Revenues.

I Think President Trump Made His View Of The Iran Deal Very Clear Before United Nations General Assembly, He Considers It Nothing Short Of An Embarrassment. The Simple Truth Is That Transferring $1.7 Billion In Cash To The Leading State Sponsor Of Terrorism Was A Terrible Idea. There Is Technical Compliance And Then There's The Spirit Of The Agreement.

Trump's Tax Returns - His Tax Returns Showed He Went Through A Very Difficult Time, But He Used The Tax Code Just The Way It's Supposed To Be Used. And He Did It Brilliantly.

Difficult Times

I Really Couldn't Be More Excited About The Opportunity That We Have With This New President [donald Trump] To Really Turn This Country Around And Get The Economy Moving Again And Have America Standing Tall Again, Home And Abroad, To Make America Great Again.

I Think The Generosity Of President Trump's Spirit, Recognizing That In The Patriot's Heart, There's No Room For Prejudice Is Part Of Who This President Is.

We've Weakened America's Place In The World. It's Been A Combination Of Factors, But Mostly A Lack Of Leadership.

The Truth Is You Cannot Command The Respect Of The World When You Spend Years Apologizing To Our Enemies And Abandoning Our Friends. Lecturing The American People About The Crusades While Refusing To Call Islamic Extremism By Name Is An Abdication Of Leadership.

Donald Trump Is A Charismatic Personality Bigger Than Life.

Bigger Than Life

It's Important That We Remind The American People Of What They Already Know About Obamacare - That The Promises That Were Made Were All Broken.

The Choice Couldn't Be More Clear For The American People. Donald Trump Has Been Completely Consistent In His Positions.

We Can Get America Moving Again, Put On Top Of That The Kind Of Trade Deals That'll Put The American Worker First, And You've Got A Prescription For Real Growth.

We Need New Leadership In The Usa That Will Name Our Enemy.

I'm A Christian, A Conservative And A Republican, In That Order.

This Grandson Of An Irish Immigrant, After Whom I Was Named, Richard Michael Cawley Is My Grandfather. I Was Right That - And I Always Tell Kids That, You Know, If My Small Life Represents Anything Is That If You Work Hard, You Study Hard, And You Never Give Up On Your Dreams And Listen To People That Care About, You Can Live Those Dreams. And For Me To Be Up On The Platform Standing With My Right Hand In The Air In The Presence Of My Family And Our New President [donald Trump], It Just Tells Me This Is A Great Country. My Grandfather Was Right.

We Really Think Health Savings Accounts Were Kind Of Invented In Indiana.

The United States Of America Should Be Prepared To Use Military Force To Strike Military Targets Of The Assad Regime.

Trump And I Have A Lot In Common, And That Is A Belief In The American Dream Because We Both Have Lived It. I Think It's What Animates Our President-elect More Than Anything Else, Is A Belief In The Boundless Potential Of Every American To Live The American Dream. And, I Think It Comes From The Fact That We Both Grew Up In It, And Both Saw It. And In Our Own Ways, We Both Lived It.

I Can Assure You President Trump And I Are Completely Focused On The Issues That Matter Most To The American People.

The First Objective Of Our National Government Is To Provide For The Common Defense. And President Donald Trump Has No Higher Priority Than The Safety And Security Of The American People. And The Possession Of Nuclear Weapons And Ballistic Missiles In The Hands Of A Regime That Routinely Threatens The People Of The United States Of America And Our Allies Is Just Simply Unacceptable.

The United States Of America Needs To Begin To Exercise Strong Leadership To Protect The Vulnerable Citizens And Over 100,000 Children In Aleppo.

We've Seen An Economy Stifled By More Taxes, More Regulation, A War On Coal And A Failing Health Care Reform Come To Be Known As Obamacare And The American People Know That We Need To Make A Change.

For A Guy That Grew Up On 31st Street And Everroad Park West And Played On Haw Creek And Dreamed Some Day Of Serving In Washington D.c., From My Boyhood, To Have The Opportunity To Have Represented My Hometown In Our Nation's Capital, And Now To Have The Opportunity To Serve The Entire Nation As Vice President Is ...

The Number One Priority Of President Trump Is To Rebuild Our Military, To Restore The Arsenal Of Democracy.

Donald Trump Has Laid Out A Priority To Remove Criminal Aliens, Remove People That Have Overstayed Their Visas. And - And Once We Have Accomplished All Of That, Which Will - Which Will Strengthen Our Economy, Strengthen The Rule Of Law In The Country And Make Our Communities Safer Once The Criminal Aliens Are Out, Then We'll Deal With Those That Remain.

I Think The Best Way That We Can Bring People Together Is Through Change In Washington, D.c.

Community Policing Is A Great Idea. It's Worked In The Hoosier State.

Iraq Has Been Overrun By Isis Because Hillary Clinton Failed To Renegotiate, Hillary Clinton, Hillary Clinton, Hillary Clinton Failed To Renegotiate A Status Of Forces Agreement...and So We Removed, We Removed All Of Our Troops From Iraq And Isis Was Able To Be Conjured Up In That Vacuum And Over Run Vast Areas Of Iraq.

Unlike The Former Soviet Union That Respected The Strength Of West, Putin's Russia Ignores Talk Of Sanctions, Claims Land, And Supports Rebels In Ukraine With Impunity.

The Only Issue On Taxes - Hillary Clinton Is Going To Raise Taxes, And Donald Trump And I Are Going To Cut Them.

Donald Trump's Laid Out A Plan To End Illegal Immigration Once And For All In America. We've Been Talking It To Death For 20 Years. Hillary Clinton And Tim Kaine Want To Continue The Policies Of Open Borders, Amnesty, Catch And Release, Sanctuary Cities, All The Things That Are Driving Wages Down In This Country.

Calls To Ban Muslims From Entering The Us Are Offensive And Unconstitutional.

Donald Trump's Always Going To Tell The American People Where He Stands. And, Make No Mistake About It. There's... There's Been No Change In The Policy About Ending Illegal Immigration In America.

I Would Suggest To You, What We Need To Do Is Assert A Stronger Leadership At The National Level To Support Law Enforcement.

Law Enforcement

You Bet Every Member Of Congress Who Votes For This Bill Ought To Read It, Read It Thoroughly, And Understand That What We're Looking At Here Amounts To Nothing More Than A Government Takeover Of Our Health Care Economy, Paid For With Nearly A Trillion Dollars In New Taxes On Individuals And Small Businesses.

As A Conservative Who Believes In Limited Government, I Believe That The Only Check On Government Power In Real Time Is A Free And Independent Press.

We'll Be Passing Tax Relief For Small Business Owners And Working Families Across The Country.

There's A Reason Why People Question The Trustworthiness Of Hillary Clinton. And That's Because They're Paying Attention.

President Trump Is Going To Keep The Promises He Made To The American People Through Decisive Executive Action And Through Legislation.

The Reality Is That During The Reagan Years, For Instance, We Doubled The Amount Of Revenue That We Were Sending To Washington, D.c. After The Tax Cuts Took Effect.

I Think Of What My Dad Might Do In A Certain Situation. And So He Continues To Be, You Know, My Hero, My Role Model.

Nobody Was Talking About Illegal Immigration When Donald Trump Entered This Campaign. He Was Attacked From Day One For Putting The Whole Issue Of The Violence That Is Derived From Certain Individuals That Come Into This Country Illegally On The Table. . . He Is Hearing From All Sides. But I Promise You, He Is A Decisive Leader. He Will Stand On The Principles That Have Underpinned His Commitment To End Illegal Immigration In This Country. And That's What People Will Learn More About In The Days Ahead.

There's Simply No Question Under "the Constitution," And, Frankly, Under Federal Law, That The President Of The United States Has The Authority, In The Interest Of National Security, To Determine Who Has The Right To Come Into This Country.

The American People Know We Can Be Stronger, We Can Be More Prosperous But We Have Got To Have New Leadership And That Happens To Be Donald Trump When He Becomes President.

For Me, My Faith Informs My Life.

One Of My Earliest Memories Was President [j.f.] Kennedy's Funeral. I Actually Remember Sitting On The Floor In The Living Room Looking At Our Black-and-white Television And Watching The Caisson Roll By And Hearing The Clip-clop Of The Horses. It's Actually One Of My Earliest Memories.

Black And White

For Me, My Faith Informs My Life. I Try And Spend A Little Time On My Knees Every Day. But It All For Me Begins With Cherishing The Dignity, The Worth, The Value Of Every Human Life.

Growing Up I Used To ... One Of My Heroes Growing Up Was President John F. Kennedy. And I Actually Have A Memory Box From When I Was A Little Where I Saved Articles About President Kennedy. He Was A Real Hero.

[j.f Kennedy] Was A Congressman And A Senator And He Would Go On To Be President. I Had That Idea As A Little Boy, And I Used To Joke To People But Nobody Told Me That His Father Was Ambassador To England And That He Was A War Hero, And He Was, You Know.

I've Seen Trump Off The Campaign Trail, And I Truly Do Believe That He Has The Leadership Qualities And The Vision To Make America Great Again.

The Entire World Has One Goal, And That Is The Denuclearization Of The Korean Peninsula, We Want To Achieve That Peaceably, But All Options Are On The Table.

I've Had More Than A Few Battles With A Republican President. ... I Am Not Immune [to] Disagreeing With People Who Otherwise I Support.

I Thought It Was Important To Speak About What I Believe Would Be The Right Response To Russian Aggression In Ukraine. I'm Pleased To Hear There Is More Sanctions Maybe Coming Tomorrow. But The Truth Of The Matter Is I Think We Need Less Talk And More Deeds.

The Provocations By Russia Need To Be Met With American Strength.

It Is A Rare Piece Of Legislation Indeed Where There Is So Much Agreement About The Goals.

And Indiana Steps Forward To Protect The Constitutional Rights And Privileges Of Freedom Of Religion For People Of Faith And Families Of Faith In Our State And This Avalanche Of Intolerance That's Been Poured On Our State Is Just Outrageous.

When You Hear Donald Trump Say He Wants To Make America Great Again, When We Do That I Truly Do Believe The American People Are Going To Be Standing Taller, They're Going To See That Real Change Can Happen After Decades Of Just Talking About It. And When That Happens The American People Are Going To Stand Tall, Stand Together And We'll Have The Kind Of Unity That's Been Missing For Way Too Long.

My Fellow Republicans, When Donald Trump Becomes President Of The United States Of America, The Change Will Be Huge.

I Want To Be Very Clear - There Will Be No Path To Legalization.

The President-elect Has Set A Very Aggressive Agenda, And I Think That Repealing And Replacing Obamacare With The Kind Of Health Care Reform That'll Lower The Cost Of Health Insurance Without Growing The Size Of Government Will Be Job One.

I Believe In Servant Leadership, And The Servant Always Asks, 'where Am I Needed Most?'

Servant Leadership

In The Last Four Years Under The Patriot Act, We Have Seen A Great Increase In The Ability Of Law Enforcement Officials To Investigate And Track Terrorists.

In Donald Trump, You Have Someone Who Will Bring Real Change To Washington, D.c. He's A Bold Leader. He's Distinctly American. He Doesn't Play By The Old-fashioned Rules. He's Going To Washington, D.c., Break Up The Status Quo, And I Believe Get This Economy Moving Again And Have America Standing Tall In The World.

Once We Have Done All Of Those Things, Then We Are Going To Reform The Immigration System That We Have In This Country.

If I'm Vice President Of The United States And Donald Trump Is President, We're Going To Put The Safety And Security Of The American People First.

I Just Have A Heart Filled With Gratitude For A Wonderful Family. My Wife, Karen, Is The Love Of My Life, And She Campaigned With Me Virtually Every Day Of 130-some Odd Days Of The Campaign Trail, As Did Our Daughter, Charlotte, Traveled All Over The Country With Us. But My Son, Who Just Got Married To His College Sweetheart, And Our Youngest Daughter - Just Am Grateful For A Family That Has Supported Me In My Calling To Public Service.

In Indiana, The Affordable Care Act Will Raise The Average Cost Of Health Insurance In The Individual Market By An Unaffordable 72 Percent.
