On the recordJune 22, 2016
I thank my colleagues. For all of America that is listening, you just heard the soul of the United States Congress speak. The soul of this Nation cries out for a vote. We are gathered here on this floor today to accomplish a single goal. We implore and we ask our colleagues--our colleague from Georgia stood on that side to appeal to the better angels on that side of the aisle-- to provide us with the simple dignity that every American is calling for: a vote.
