Political Quotes

On the recordJune 15, 2016
I thank the gentleman for joining us on the floor today. I think that is really what this is about--not being able in our heart of hearts to go back to our States, especially those that have been touched by these crimes, and tell them that we wasted another week, that we sat here and we ignored the problem for yet another week. The reason I am on the floor, the reason that Senator Blumenthal and Senator Booker are joining me, is that we have just had enough. We have had enough of these shootings, enough of this talk. We think it is time for action and time for action now.
