James Comer said "that was a long minute for the leader of the Democratic Party to advocate for more work-from-home policies for our Federal employees. I think the American people have spoken loud and clear. They support our Federal employees, like the Republican Party, but we expect them to show up for work, not get paid to be home and not be accessible by phone or by computer or by email. That is what we heard from the leader of the Democratic Party. Mr. Speaker, I reserve the balance of my time." @ PoliticalQuotes.com
