Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, I yield myself the balance of my time for closing. I would again thank Congressman Sherman for working across the aisle, in particular with Representative De La Cruz from Texas on her companion bill, to make sure our Nation's HUD-VASH program works as effectively as possible. This bill is a step forward in ensuring that every veteran who is experiencing homelessness can access the supportive housing they need, facilitating their successful reintegration into civilian life. This is especially true for disabled veterans who experience unique barriers to housing that is inaccessible and increasingly unaffordable. With this bill, we can assure and ensure disabled veterans have the resources they need to lead stable, fulfilling lives after their invaluable service to our Nation. Again, I urge my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to support this bill, and I yield back the balance of my time.”
