I thank Congressman Greg Meeks for lending his voice to tonight's Special Order hour. {time} 2000 It is now my honor to ask Congressman Donald Payne from New Jersey to come and lend his voice tonight. He is someone who brings a message to us. He is someone who advocates for our financial needs; he advocates for our children; he is a father; he is a husband; and he is someone who understands, in the time that we are having now, the value of quality education and the value of removing our children from poverty because he understands that all lives matter.
