Martha McSally Quotations

If it were in our national security to deploy to South Africa under apartheid, would we have found it acceptable or customary to segregate African American soldiers from other American soldiers, and say, 'It's just a cultural thing'? I don't think so. I would hope not.

When I see something messed up, I'm going to challenge it.

I'm probably one of the only people who has voted for the speaker of the House but didn't serve in Congress.

If we want the most effective fighting force, we need to pick the most qualified capable man for the job, even if it's a woman.

I have three older brothers. I'm Irish. I'm feisty.

If we want the most effective fighting force, we need to pick the most qualified capable man for the job, even if it's a woman.

I think there is a longing in everyone for a personal relationship with God.

Raising taxes in an economic downturn is not a good idea.

I served my country in uniform for 26 years.

I just personally decided I was going to be the first woman fighter pilot.

Before I became a fighter pilot, everyone said that women didn't have the physical strength. Well, I had just completed the Hawaii Ironman Triathlon.

I am grateful for the support of those who want to see more women in Congress to better represent our country and provide leadership and solutions to DC. Ron Barber has been asleep at the switch on issues that are extremely important to Southern Arizona, such as fighting for the A-10 and Davis-Monthan. That is why Nancy Pelosi is stepping in to try to save his job in November. Sometimes the best man for the job is a woman that is why I fully intend on replacing Congressman Barber on Election Day.

When you value people, you give them freedom.
