I thank Mr. Delahunt. Your contributions tonight have been well-noted, and I want to tell you that it is a pleasure being here on the floor with you and Mr. Ryan and Ms. Wasserman Schultz once again. Mr. Speaker, we would like to let not only the Members of the House but definitely the Democratic leadership echo the message that has been given out here tonight. We are ready to lead, we are ready to work in a bipartisan way in putting this country back on the track, heading in the right direction, making sure that our children have a great future, making sure that small businesses are able provide jobs and making sure that families can afford health care. ____________________
