I hope you Members of the Committee in this session will similarly rise to the challenge of this moment and this problem and work together to get something good and great done for our country.
We're going to ask the delegates on Friday, do you want us to go forward to do some final surveying of public opinion because we've said we're not going to do this unless we have a chance to win.
It is self-evidently unacceptable in America to condition the enjoyment of constitutional rights on political party membership.
I hope that the spirit of bipartisanship... will guide your Committee's consideration of the deprivation of voting representation in Congress for citizens of our Capital City.
