Political Quotes

On the recordNovember 16, 2017
I would just like to associate myself with your comments, sir, in praising the ranking member. Senator Reed went through a long list of people who have gotten the NDAA across the finish line for more than half a century in a row. As a newbie rookie in this body, I have to say that serving with the two of you on the Armed Services Committee is a real privilege and honor. Much of the body doesn't work very well right now, but that committee works incredibly well. So I want to agree with the Senator from Maine that the ranking member is a huge part of why the Armed Services Committee works so well. Thank you, sir.
