Associated Industries of Massachusetts about Senator Murray's Job Growth Efforts

"In the race for the Plymouth and Barnstable Senate seat, Democrat Therese Murray stands head and shoulders above her Republican challenger, Thomas Keyes ... Therese Murray has built a reputation as a tough yet sensible negotiator who know the ins and outs of state policies, from agriculture to stem cell research. She always seems to be the most prepared person at the table and has little patience with those who do not do their homework ... As Senate president, she currently holds a position where she can do the most good for her constituents … In choosing an incumbent to try to unseat…[Mr. Keyes] could not have picked more poorly. We urge voters to reelect Ms. Murray to another term in the Senate on November 2."

"Let’s go back to basics. We have to hold the line on spending, first of all. Give the President [of the U.S.] the line item veto.

It’s very important to do that."

Scott Brown, U.S. Senate Debate, January 11, 2010
