Political Quotes

“I am honored to be here on the floor today to join Senator McConnell and my other colleagues in recognizing the service Senator Judd Gregg has provided to the people of this country, and for us, importantly, to the people of New Hampshire. I have had the good fortune to know Senator Gregg since I first got elected to public office. In the New Hampshire political tradition, you learn to work together with people on both sides of the aisle for what is in the best interests of New Hampshire. Senator Gregg has been a fine example of that tradition. I have enjoyed working with him over the years, and his presence in the Chamber and the Senate halls will be missed both by me and, as we have already heard, by the rest of our colleagues. I think, as Senator Gregg was giving his remarks, the number of Senators who were here to say goodbye shows the respect and how much he will be missed by all of our colleagues. Throughout my own public life, I have always appreciated the civility and generosity Senator Gregg has shown me.”
