Kendrick Meek: “I just want to say tomorrow one of those groups that I did not mention, Rock the Vote, will be having a townhall meeting…”

“I just want to say tomorrow one of those groups that I did not mention, Rock the Vote, will be having a townhall meeting with some Democratic Senators and will also have a college campus tour as they start to go around and talk about this issue, and Republican Senators that have spoken out against this. And I must add that the gentlewoman from Florida (Ms. Wasserman Schultz) and I join, in the single digits, I must add, members of the Florida delegation in this House that are opposing the President's philosophy at this time, rightfully so, because their constituents are not with them on this. And that is the way democracy is supposed to work. We are not up here to fly up here every week and walk around with congressional pins on and showing our card, walking in and out of this Capitol, and saying that we are here to represent ourselves. We are here to represent the people that have sent us here. And believe me, if I were walking around here saying I support the President's philosophy and the majority's philosophy, my constituents, and the gentlewoman from Florida knows them well, would be up in arms. So I am a representation of what they voted for.”
