Political Quotes

“Today I rise to commend the Air Capital Chapter of AMBUCS. AMBUCS provides mobility and transportation for people with disabilities. They provide therapeutic tricycles and bicycles to children and veterans with disabilities, and they give along with that the sense of freedom and hope that comes with being able to be transported. Last year, my local chapter--appropriately named the Air Capital Chapter of AMBUCS--provided Marine Sergeant Jonathan Blank of Augusta with an AmTryke bike. It allowed him to regain some of his mobility. Sergeant Blank, having lost both legs in an explosion last year in Afghanistan, has been in physical therapy to learn to use his prosthetic legs. The AMBUCS-provided bike has allowed him to get exercise and stay healthy--strengthening his body and helping him walk with prosthetics sooner. Air Capital AMBUCS has now provided over 30 specialty bikes since they were first chartered just 1\1/2\ years ago and are now one of the top five organizations all across the country--quite an impressive accomplishment. I would like to thank the Air Capital AMBUCS all- volunteer staff for the amazing work they do and their dedication to this very noble cause. ____________________”
