A huge congratulations to the New England Patriots for winning Super Bowl XLIX--surgical passes from quarterback Tom Brady, a thunderous spike by tight end Rob Gronkowski, and a crucial goal line interception by rookie cornerback Malcolm Butler. Although our Patriots earned a thrilling fourth Super Bowl title, I also congratulate the Seattle Seahawks and their fans for battling until the very end of their terrific season. Maine is Patriots nation. We appreciate hard work and results. In this Chamber, Republicans and Democrats engage in passionate debate on issues critically important to American families. We have been sent here to move the ball down the field together, to put points on the board for hardworking taxpayers. Patriots fans, Seahawks fans, and families coast to coast deserve an effective government that solves our Nation's problems. Then we will have a healthy, growing economy with more jobs, fatter paychecks, and more freedom. Here in this Chamber, we are all Patriots, we are all Americans, and we work for the people. ____________________
