Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, so we now know what a $280 million- investment in a Presidential campaign will give you: the opportunity to totally destroy one of America's most important soft power, and that is the United States Agency for International Development. Mr. Musk and Mr. President, before you set about destroying USAID and the work that it does to provide necessary support for people, refugees and starving children around the world, I want you to hold in your hand a starving child. Look at their extended belly, look at their eyes, and understand what you are doing to hundreds, indeed millions, of people around the world when you take USAID and put it in the wood chipper. Reverse it. Have you any sense of humanity? Do you have any compassion? If you do, you will reverse the policy of destroying USAID. The SPEAKER pro tempore. Members are reminded to address their remarks to the Chair. ____________________”
