Kay Hagan Quotations

The fabric of North Carolina and what makes our state so special is our families and our common desire for a brighter future for our children. No matter what your family looks like, we all want the same thing for our families - happiness, health, prosperity, a bright future for our children and grandchildren.

For too long, Americans have fallen victim to financial abuses at the hands of predatory lenders that operate in the shadows.

The Small Business 'common app' would function much like the one that students complete to apply to multiple colleges and universities simultaneously. It would ensure that small businesses across the country can concentrate on growing and creating jobs - not wasting time, filling out mountains of repetitive paperwork.

I need to be looking at what's important in North Carolina, and you better believe that's what I will do.

I want to use every tool in the toolbox that's at our disposal to help our economy and put people back to work.

I'm up for re-election in 2014, and yes I do plan to run for re-election.

People like Elizabeth Dole have given too much power to the special interests.

We in Congress need to do everything possible to encourage and cultivate small businesses, so that they can expand and create jobs. Far too often, however, U.S. small businesses are impeded by government paperwork and bureaucratic red tape.

I want to look at the whole package, but I definitely want to protect the middle-class taxpayer, first and foremost.

My faith guides my life.
