Heidi Heitkamp actually said...

"I am out of time but I want to make the point that no one should be so discouraged that we are looking at safety in foster homes."

"This is on us. This is on all of us because we are the adults."

"We respectfully request that the procedures used to implement the legislation not be duplicative, costly nor a source of frustration to possible foster parents or caregivers."

"We must hold professionals accountable when they are not following existing law."
