Political Quotes

“I will fight for any Senator's right to offer an amendment, and also to debate it and bring it to a vote. That is what a legislative body is all about. What we have seen for the past week is a slow dance. There are people who just do not want to see the Senate roll up its sleeves and get down to work. We have a lot of things to do, such as for farmers, for exporting, and even for important issues such as the ones in the Transportation bill. I salute the Senator from Washington for her patience and her perseverance and her strength. I hope we can get this job done very quickly and this bill passed.”
