Political Quotes

“Again I want to thank Mr. Rangel for bringing this forward. He and Mr. Johnson, Mr. Coble being here, make it very, very special. We certainly appreciate all of your all service to our country; Mr. Rangel stating that he went off at age 20; Mr. Johnson, I think, at the same age, around 20; and then Howard, Mr. Coble, in his early twenties, going off to war. It is so fitting that we take a little bit of time, that the House just pauses to remember the sacrifice that was incurred, again, for those that were so willing to go over for the rest of us. We look forward to the celebrations that are going to occur later in the year. And then again, at that time, the whole Nation will pause and remember the sacrifice that you all so willingly did for the rest of us. With that, I yield back the balance of my time.”
