Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, continuing with my family, Sonia, from our earliest days of dating and putting up with the travels of my commitment to serve my country in the Air Force, to my kids facing the challenges of traveling in this job, I thank them. I also want to thank those who have elected me and who put their faith and trust in me to allow me to work hard for them. It has been a tremendous journey, one that I have been privileged to have had, both from my family and from our community. I have made great friendships here, from the wolf pack to my legislators who have come here with me, some amazing relationships, and it has been a great honor to serve with them, to work with them, and to enjoy our time together. Lastly, to my parents, my mom, who has been so proud of me: Mom, I just say to please stay off Facebook. Thank you to my father, who has passed, for giving me the strength and the confidence to do anything that I wanted to do in life, and to my grandfather, who encouraged me to get into public service. It has been their support as well as my brother, sister, and business partner who have allowed me to spend my time serving my community and serving my country. Mr. Speaker, it has been a great ride, and I thank them all. ____________________”
