Political Quotes

“Madam President, I am grateful to stand here tonight. I ask unanimous consent that floor access be granted to my communications director Jeff Giertz, the father of two amazing daughters and whose Christmas card was so moving to me. He should be home with them at this late hour, but I hope you will give him permission to be on the floor without objection. And to my chief of staff Veronica Duron, who does not have two beautiful daughters but who has a lot of plants that need watering, she should probably be home doing that, but I would like to get her permission to be on the Senate floor as well. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered. ____________________”
