More From Matt Gonzalez
- "When I got into politics, it was a shock. People promise all sorts of things and then never deliver."
- "This idea that once you get into politics… you are now signed up for lifelong duty being in elective office, makes a fundamental error – and that is believing that the only way you can hold progressive views and implement them is in elective office."
- "Some types of environmental restoration projects are well-known; restored wetlands, for instance, or coal mine reclamation projects. Recently though, larger dam removal projects have started, a number of them in Washington state."
More In Politics
- "I’ll never get out of politics. I have friends in public office. I have things that I want to do. You can’t go back in life. I won’t go back to the existence I had before of running a political consulting firm and signing up clients and advising campaigns in exactly that way."― Karl Rove
- "As a black woman, my politics and political affiliation are bound up with and flow from participation in my people’s struggle for liberation, and with the fight of oppressed people all over the world against American imperialism."― Angela Davis
- "The enemy is not just terrorism. It is the threat posed specifically by Islamist terrorism, by Bin Ladin and others who draw on a long tradition of extreme intolerance within a minority strain of Islam that does not distinguish politics from religion, and distorts both."― John Cornyn
