(Couldn't find good sentences lol)

Mayor Dee Johnsburger claims that, “the money budgeted for road repairs is inadequate.”

Mayor Dee Johnsburger claims that, “The money budgeted for road repairs is inadequate.”

Answers

Answer: Use the evidence below to find your answer.

Explanation: Introduce the quotation with a complete sentence and a colon. (Colons follow independent clauses - clauses that could stand alone as sentences and can be used to present an explanation, draw attention to something, or join ideas together.)  

Use an introductory or explanatory phrase, but not a complete sentence, separated from the quotation with a comma.

Make the quotation a part of your own sentence without any punctuation between your own words and the words you are quoting.

Periods and commas ALWAYS go inside quotation marks.

Examples: The sign said, "Walk." Then it said, "Don't Walk," then, "Walk," all within thirty seconds. He yelled, "Hurry up."
