Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, I rise in strong support of this legislation. This bill is one of the most consequential policies considered by this body during my time in Congress. From top to bottom, it provides struggling Americans with the relief that they need. It provides critical healthcare funding to help crush the virus, including funds to continue ramping up vaccinations. It provides funds to help small businesses stay afloat, to help restaurants keep their lights on, to help families afford health insurance, to keep workers employed, and to help kids get back into school. It bolsters State and local governments and provides emergency assistance to the millions of Americans behind on rent. On top of that, this bill is projected to cut child poverty in this country in half. This is an excellent bill, and I thank my colleagues, the chairman, especially, and our partners in the administration for swiftly bringing this critical relief to the floor. The American people know that help is on the way. I urge my colleagues to vote ``yes.''”
