Political Quotes

On the recordMarch 10, 2021
It is an honor for me to be here today with my colleagues, Mr. Thompson and Mrs. McBath. Mr. Speaker, Lucy's courage is an inspiration to me. This has been a priority for me in the quarter century I have been in Congress. I have supported every single reform that has advanced. But we have a change today because we have never had in 10 years the alignment with a House leadership and a Senate leadership that will not bury it and a President who will enthusiastically sign it into law. This is a landmark legislation that many of us have been working on literally for decades, and this is one more example of what difference it makes to have Democrats in charge and being able to advance meaningful gun safety. Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleagues for their hard work, and I am proud to stand with them.
