Political Quotes

“I welcome this opportunity to reflect, once again, on Senator Mikulski's vision for America and upon all that she has achieved in public life. On a personal note, I am deeply grateful that God has given me the opportunity to know and work with a woman who all would agree is a remarkable human being and a person I am honored to call my friend. Barbara Mikulski's progressive values are solid, and they are clear, and we have always known that she would fight for all of us every single day. Less well-known, however, is Barbara Mikulski's lifetime vision of bringing all of America's working families together in support of progressive change. Here is a dream that ties together her roots in Highlandtown, in Baltimore, with my own heritage from south Baltimore and west Baltimore. She is, indeed, a very, very special woman. She has never forgotten from whence she has come. One of the things I also love about Barbara Mikulski is that she consistently synchronizes her conduct with her conscience. We will miss her, but we know that Barbara will always be fighting for the people of our great city, for the great people of the State of Maryland, and for the people of these great United States. ____________________”
