Political Quotes

“Due to an illness, I was unable to be in Washington, DC for votes today. Had I been present for the votes, I would have voted as follows: Rollcall vote 658: I would have voted in favor of H.R. 6540, the Defense Level Playing Field Act. Rollcall vote 659: I would have voted in favor of the motion to concur in the Senate amendment to H.R. 5116, the America COMPETES Reauthorization Act of 2010. Rollcall vote 660: I would have voted in favor of the motion to concur in the Senate amendment to H.R. 2142, the Government Efficiency, Effectiveness, and Performance Improvement Act of 2010. Rollcall vote 661: I would have voted in favor of the motion to concur in the Senate amendment to H.R. 5116, the FDA Food Safety Modernization Act. This long-overdue legislation will help ensure a safe food supply while taking into the realities and needs of America's farmers. I especially appreciate changes made by the Senate to meet the needs of very small farms and processors. ____________________”
