Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, I rise with great sadness and with great disappointment. America is the land of the free and the home of the brave, and continually tells the world that we will protect them to be lands of the free and the home of the brave. Yet this week, we are about to consider a bill that tells people, particularly those in distress, we don't care. I believe all of us want to defend Israel and give her the resources she needs, but the people in Ukraine want to be the land of the free and the home of the brave, and yet we continue to stand silent. I rise, Mr. Speaker, to say that it is beneath the principles, image, and reality of America that we are not passing a comprehensive bill to make sure that whether you are in Asia, the Middle East, or any place else, we will help you be the land of the free and the home of the brave. Let's do that, Mr. Speaker. Let's do it now. ____________________”
