"This Congress faces many pressing issues, beginning with stemming the economic crisis, but through these challenges can come tremendous opportunity."

"Again, thank you for this opportunity to share the views of the National Council on Aging regarding civic engagement initiatives for older Americans."

"I join the hundreds of thousands of young people around the country who have made service a part of their daily lives, to encourage your continued leadership on this very important issue."

"Service is an incredible thing, and it should be something that is not only just the right thing to do but the cool thing to do."
