He doesn' t just pay lip service to them.
"give /pay lip service to""只是说说而已,不采取实际行动"
eg: Politicians often pay lip service to many important issues during an election but they don' t fulfill their promises once they are elected.政治家们在大选中对很多大事都只是嘴上工夫而已,一旦当选就不会履行诺言.
Arnold Schwartzenneger gave lip service to immigrant rights before he became governor.Let' s see if he actually does what he said he would. 阿诺德·施瓦辛格在成为州长前曾许诺过在移民的权利方面采取一些措施,现在让我们去实际看一下他是否兑现了他的诺言.
