Political Quotes

On the recordSeptember 29, 2020
I thank the leader for yielding. John Shimkus has been my friend. He has done well for this House. He and I played paddleball together. We never lost. We will be challenged on that, but that is true. I have a saying that many people may not recognize. Why do the good people leave this Congress and the SOBs stay behind? I have been here 48 years, so I have to reconsider that. But, John, we will miss you. You are a great Congressman; you are a great ally; you are a great American; and I know you have served your district very well. God bless you in the future for things you may do.
