Political Quotes

“I'm here today of course to celebrate and to honor Women's History Month. Mr. Speaker, it's an important time to honor the political and social struggles of women across this world and certainly in this Nation who have made significant contributions in the advancement of women. And it is perhaps fitting that we are here today to discuss the subject of the hour, health care, and especially as that pertains to women--women who bear the brunt of a system that's failing; women who make the decisions for themselves, their children and their families on health care; women who sometimes work in positions, in jobs that don't allow them access to quality and affordable health care. So I think that it is fitting that on this weekend, on this upcoming Sunday, we'll have an opportunity to discuss how we're going to bring health care, quality, affordable and accessible health care, not only to America's women but to all of our families and to our children.”
