On the recordMarch 15, 2016
I commend Representative Sinema for her efforts on behalf of the Somers family. We lose a lot of our sons and daughters in harm's way, and there is reflection for that family as to what that sacrifice accomplished. I guess it depends on the year, the place, the circumstances. But the Somers family knows that they have a champion here fighting on their behalf so that the sacrifice was not for naught. A legacy is left behind that those who struggle moving forward might have a helping hand. I thank Ms. Sinema for her advocacy not just on behalf of the Somers family in her district, but for all of our veterans who need more help all across America. At this time, I would like to recognize the gentleman from Pennsylvania (Mr. Rothfus) and thank him for his efforts in his home State and for joining this cause tonight on behalf of our veterans who not only are going to benefit from the immediate effort of this Chamber with all the different ideas that are before it now, but really for the decades and generations still to serve ahead. I yield to the gentleman from Pennsylvania (Mr. Rothfus).
