Rob Woodall: “I am always compelled to yield to my friend from New York because I am…”

On the recordSeptember 7, 2017

I am always compelled to yield to my friend from New York because I am so fond of her and because her leadership has meant so much to this institution. My friend has served on the Rules Committee for even longer than I have, and so my friend understands how the Rules Committee works even better than I do. I don't want to engage my friend in a colloquy, at least not in my closing statement. We should have this conversation on day 1. Please, my friend from New York, give us one more word.
