Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate and welcome our new colleague to the New Jersey delegation, Congressman Donald Norcross. Now, let me tell you that you will all learn to love Donald Norcross the way I have. He comes from a union background, and he is a fighter. He always fights for the little guy. He also is bipartisan. He wants to work with the Republican side to get legislation passed, as he did in the State senate, and he has the reputation in the State senate, where we chaired one of the committees, of actually passing legislation. I just want you to get to know him well. As I said, you will learn to love him. He will be a great Congressman, and you will learn over the next few years how effective he can be. Congratulations again, Donald. I yield to the gentleman from New Jersey (Mr. LoBiondo). Mr. LoBIONDO. Mr. Speaker, I join in with congratulations to Donald Norcross. I have known Donald for a number of years as a State legislator, and before that, we worked together at a local level. Donald will always put his constituents first. He will always put his district first. He will be a great asset to this Congress, and I look forward to working with you, Donald. Congratulations.”
