Political Quotes

“I am here today to extend my sincere and best wishes as five of my fellow Ohioans will be leaving the House at the adjournment of this Congress. Ohioans have benefited greatly from the dedication and service of Representative Steve LaTourette, who occupies the Speaker's chair today; Representatives Dennis Kucinich; Jean Schmidt; Betty Sutton; and Steve Austria. On a personal note, I want to thank Representative Steve LaTourette for both his mentorship and his guidance and leadership in Congress. I've had the privilege of working across the aisle with each of these lawmakers in support of our fellow Buckeyes and Americans. Their service to our home State of Ohio and to our Nation will not end with this Congress. Their innovative ideas and selfless service will be felt long after they leave the people's House. I look forward to their future roles as Ohioans, committed to advancing the interests of our communities, our State, and our great country. ____________________”
