Political Quotes

“Mr. President, I would hope I would be standing here today talking about lowering costs for Americans or tackling the housing crisis. Or, as the former secretary of labor in Delaware, I thought I would be standing here talking about jobs and the economy. Unfortunately, the actions over the last 2 weeks have cast a long shadow over our work and our discourse in this body, and instead of speaking about lowering the cost of goods or the housing crisis or jobs, I stand before you armed with the voices of Delawareans. Instead, today, I am speaking about the actions of the Trump administration that are sowing fear, confusion, and chaos in homes and workplaces across America and around the world. But know this: I stand before you filled with a spirit of love for my constituents and my great State and also for my country. Like many of my colleagues here today, my goal is to highlight how these things that are occurring are impacting my State but also to instill some hope. In the tradition of my faith, there is sort of like a prescription. There are some things that you should not forget. The first is that trouble don't last always. The second is it won't last always if we walk together and don't get weary. And then the third is that joy comes in the morning. So I am speaking to you, America, as we face these precarious times, at a moment when instead of having a President to bring us all together, many feel divided. But if we hold on together, the morning will come.…”
