Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor my brother, Roger F. Lorenz. Roger is my older brother. He set a good example for me while I was growing up. He studied hard in school, worked during the summer, and got really good grades in school. While he was going to college, he would work nights--I mean, all night long into the wee morning--to pay the bills and went to college during the day. It was tough. He did well for himself and for his family. He was a manager for major companies selling huge mining equipment and machines. Roger is a good husband, father, and grandfather. He is also a good brother to me. I can't believe it has been over 6 years since I was sworn into Congress in this very place. My brother Roger made sure he was here to show me his support. I thank Roger for all the positive things he has done for me throughout my life. He has played a positive role in my success. Honoring Donna M. Lorenz”
