Political Quotes

“I rise today to celebrate my incredible Marine Corps fellow, Captain Simona Elvin, for her tremendous work this past year in my office. Simona has been instrumental in helping prepare for legislation, meetings, and defense events. Her expertise has been crucial in crafting legislation that directly benefits our servicemembers in Oklahoma's Fifth Congressional District. Her hard work in my office and service to our Nation are applaudable. Mr. Speaker, I will miss Simona, not only for what she has brought to us legislatively but also for who she is as a person. From day one, it was obvious that she would fit well with Team Bice. Her attitude, spirit, and wit will be truly missed, especially at Monday morning coffee. This past weekend was the 126th Army-Navy game. As a member of the Board of Visitors at West Point, this is not easy to say, but for Simona, I will: Congrats. Go Navy. Mr. Speaker, she will be truly missed.”
