Political Quotes

On the recordJanuary 16, 2019
It is an honor today to represent hundreds of thousands of men, women, and children who will be marching this week in Washington, D.C., and around the country through the cold, through the wet, and, frankly, through the ridicule. We don't march for the recognition or for the headlines. We march on behalf of the millions of children who have had their opportunity to make an impact on this world stolen from them. We don't march because it is merely a political statement. We march because it is right. We march for life. We must continue to prevent taxpayer dollars from being used to end the lives of innocent children here in the United States and around the globe. When an organization prioritizes abortion over adoption and creating a culture of life, we must question why our government funds them at all. Now more than ever, Madam Speaker, we are called to speak up for those who cannot for themselves. We must all stand firm to defend the sanctity of life, for the challenge is great and the cause is noble. Together, we will march in solidarity for those who have never had the opportunity to walk on their own, and, in coming days, our voices will be heard louder than ever. ____________________
