“Mr. Speaker, justice is urgent legislative work. The truth is urgent legislative work. The Speaker says: Why now? Why now? Mr. Speaker, you were the one who refused to swear in Adelita Grijalva for 50 days. We would have done it 50 days ago, but she provided the 218th signature on the discharge petition. So why now?

It is within his control.”
