Paul Ryan says no to running for president in 2012
MILWAUKEE — Congressman Paul Ryan, R-Wis., said Monday he has ruled out running for president in 2012, squelching speculation he might make a late jump into a shifting Republican field. "I sincerely appreciate the support from those eager to chart a brighter future for the next generation. While humbled by the encouragement, I have not changed my mind, and therefore I am not seeking our party’s nomination for president," Ryan said in a statement. It’s not the first time this year Ryan has said no to a White House bid, or the first time he has said no emphatically. By ...

Ryan Makes Case for New Approach to Poverty WASHINGTON—Today, Chairman Paul Ryan of Wisconsin met with the Congressional Black Caucus to discuss the fight against poverty and the need to promote upward mobility. Upon the meeting’s conclusion, Chairman Ryan released the following statement: “I want to thank my colleagues in the Congressional Black Caucus for inviting me to their weekly meeting. We had an engaging and productive discussion. “There’s no question that poverty is a serious problem, one with many causes and no easy answers. But that’s why we need to confront it. And we need to extend the conversation beyond Washington—to communities all across the country. “Poverty isn’t just a form of deprivation; it’s a form of isolation. And though government must be part of the solution, everybody needs to get involved. “The first step to real reform is a frank conversation. We need to figure out what works; we need to learn from people who are fighting poverty on the front lines. “And that conv |
Ryan's Opening Statement: A Progress Report on the War on Poverty: Reforming Federal Aid Morning, everybody—and welcome. This is the fourth in our series of hearings on the War on Poverty. We’ve been talking about how to promote upward mobility in America in the 21st century. And today, we’re going to pick up where we left off. Last time, we heard from people fighting poverty on the front lines. Today, we’re going to hear from people who have worked on the supply lines. We’re going to look at how the states and federal government can better support the fight against poverty. Because, if we’ve learned anything, it’s that there’s room for improvement. Each year, we spend nearly $800 billion on 92 different programs to fight poverty. And yet the official poverty rate hasn’t budged in years. People can get help if they fall into poverty. But far too many people still can’t earn enough to get out of poverty. And over the past three years, deep poverty has been the highest on record. Clearly, something’s not working. We need to try something new. |
Honoring a local hero: WWII vet receives medals after 70-year wait By Jake Magee, Janesville Gazette JANESVILLE--Weepy daughters dabbed at wet eyes Monday as Rep. Paul Ryan awarded local World War II veteran Ted Shaw, 93, a Bronze Star Medal that he earned 70 years ago. Shaw received the award in downtown Janesville's Old Towne Mall. World War II veterans who earned the Combat Infantryman Badge for actively engaging the enemy in ground combat are eligible to receive the Bronze Star. Confusion about the medal's criteria in the '40s caused many soldiers to be sho... |
A Strategy for Renewal Thanks, everybody—thanks, Michèle. After looking at the program, I’d say you have quite the lineup: a four-star general, a PBS news anchor, a national security adviser . . . and a budget guy. Now, some of you might think that’s kind of a letdown, but I’d like to think I’m the entertainment. And in all seriousness, I’d like to thank you for this opportunity. I don’t get to talk about national security as much as I’d like. So let me begin by saying this: I’m very concerned about where we stand in the world and what it means for us. You might think that working on the budget would narrow your perspective—that national security would become just another number on a spreadsheet. But that hasn’t been my experience. Wrestling with the tough decisions, seeing the hard choices, running on a national ticket and contemplating all that comes with it—it’s made me all too aware of what it takes to keep us safe and how our current policies are falling short. So I was very |
