Political Quotes

“I want to say that my thoughts and prayers are with our colleague, Steve Scalise, and the others who were injured as a result of the horrific shooting yesterday morning. This makes us realize how vulnerable we all are and, in serving our country, we risk a lot of things from time to time. The people who were injured, besides Congressman Scalise, the brave first responders who probably saved many more lives as a result, what can we say, other than thank you to the first responders all over this country who save us day in and day out. The other young people, the staffer and lobbyist, everyone who was injured yesterday, my thoughts and prayers are with them as well. Steve is a tough guy, and I know he is going to heal quickly, and I know he is going to get better and have a full recovery, so I just wanted to wish him a good Father's Day. Let the small pleasures of life come back to him because he deserves it. I want him and his family to know that our thoughts are with them during this difficult time. We are all in the same family together, the congressional family. And it matters not what party you belong to, but the fact is we are all there to serve our constituents and help America. So God bless America, God bless Steve Scalise and all the people who were injured. We are not going to stop until they are brought back home and mending and recovered 100 percent. ____________________”
