Political Quotes

“I want to thank the Senator from Ohio. I introduced him as the Senator from Ohio because that is what he is right now, but I could have also said that he is the former USTR, U.S. Trade Ambassador, so I guess I could have said Ambassador Portman, and he was also the Director of the Office of Management and Budget. So when he gets up and talks about the comparison of USMCA versus NAFTA, he certainly knows what he is talking about, and I appreciate his being here and the compelling case he makes based on many years of work and truly understanding these trade agreements and being part of developing them. So, again, my thanks to the Senator from Ohio. I appreciate him very much. Now I am going to turn to somebody who appreciates the farmer the way I do, and that is the junior Senator from Iowa.”
