Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, I rise today to share the story of a Federal scientist who was fired by President Trump and Elon Musk. In their own words, this researcher wrote: I was a biologist with USDA's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service. I worked to mitigate human-wildlife conflict and protect American agriculture. As a Wildlife Services biologist, I was also designated as an emergency response official and was preparing to deploy to help the efforts combating the avian influenza epidemic. Bird flu cases are popping up across the country, including in my district, yet Trump is firing the public servants who are responsible for fighting the disease. Donald Trump is not only jeopardizing the livelihoods of thousands of Federal employees and their communities, but he is recklessly firing scientists and endangering the health and safety of every American. His actions are dangerous and cruel. ____________________”
