Political Quotes

“I rise today to support House Resolution 1531, which expresses support for designation of 2011 as World Veterinary Year, with the goal of helping to bring attention to and showing appreciation for the veterinarian profession on its 250th anniversary. I believe that those who choose to enter into the medical profession deserve our gratitude for entering into a life where they help heal the sick, be it human or animal. And for many of us, our pets become a huge part of our family, and our Nation's veterinarians help ensure our furry family members live long and rewarding lives. So, Madam Speaker, I urge all Members to join me in support of this resolution.”
