“If the Senator has finished his comment on the passage of this important legislation, I would like to briefly say John Lewis's name was mentioned, and rightfully so. Everyone the distinguished majority leader mentioned has played a significant role in this legislation before us, but when John Lewis came to Washington, this became a personal crusade of his. John Lewis is one of my heroes. I have such great admiration and respect for him. I think this is the culmination of a dream he started many years ago. I want the record to be clear as to how much this means to him, the people of Georgia, and this country.”
