Political Quotes

“Madam Speaker, I rise today in support of the efforts in Congress to clean up our democracy and deliver power back to the American people. I never thought that I would run for Congress. I never thought that I would have the chance to stand right here on the floor of the House of Representatives. I am here today because I was tired of watching corporations and special interests cutting to the front of the line ahead of the people. I was tired of watching dark money grow, gerrymandering polarize our politics, and the American people pushed aside. Now we have a precious chance to fix this and to build the kind of government the American people deserve. As we make up our minds and cast our votes, I ask us not to think of this as a partisan issue. I assure you that the people in my district on both sides believe that the system isn't working for them. I call on my colleagues to vote to pass H.R. 1 and deliver the change our constituents demand and deserve. ____________________”
