“First, let me just say that we know that Barbara Lee speaks for all of us. When I first came to Washington, Barbara, you were a great mentor and friend. Having studied about Shirley Chisholm, the stories that you told about her were so important. My favorite quote of hers is that: ``Service is the rent we pay for the privilege of living on this Earth.'' Well, Barbara, you have actually burned a mortgage. You have done so much great work over your time in Washington and in Congress. Your legacy will loom large over this place. I thank you for guiding so many of us through the appropriations process. I still want a tutorial before you go.”
