Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume. Mr. Speaker, I rise in support of this bill, which would rename a post office in Fredericksburg, Virginia, for Gladys P. Todd. Gladys Todd was a revered schoolteacher and community organizer who was active in Fredericksburg's civil rights movement. She was known for her work as a voting rights advocate and contributed to Fredericksburg electing its first Black mayor. Mr. Speaker, I encourage my colleagues to support this bill, and I reserve the balance of my time.”
