Political Quotes

“Madam Speaker, today is one of my favorite days in Congress because it is National Foster Youth Shadow Day. I have a foster youth shadowing me. His name is Joseph Mariscal. He just graduated from community college, and now he is going to go to Cal State LA. He is watching how Congress works. He has overcome so many obstacles, and because of the amazing things he has done to overcome his obstacles, I am confident he can do anything he wants in his future. I thank Karen Bass and other members of the National Foster Youth Institute for all they do for our foster youth and for having this shadow day today. ____________________”
