Steny Hoyer actually said...

"Chairman Young did more for the men and women in the Armed Forces than anyone in Congress."

"Bill Young believed in bipartisanship; the Defense Subcommittee almost always reported the Defense Appropriations bill with all Members, Democrats and Republicans, in full support."

"It is both fitting and proper that the People's House pay this tribute to a pioneering and path-breaking man."

"this happy moment stands in stark contrast to the sorrowful evening of October 18, 2013, when we learned that our dear friend and colleague, the great Bill Young, had lost his life."
