Political Quotes

“I rise to acknowledge the 100 year anniversary of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, which is a great institution in our country and will be having its centennial conference starting tomorrow here in Washington. As a member of the Alphas, I know of its reputation for academic involvement. One of the first programs of our fraternity was an effort to get young men to stay in school and to go to college, and our work here in the Congress continues that effort. I want to welcome all the Alpha brothers from across the country and the world who are coming here to Washington, DC. It is a proud day for this great organization, and I thank the Congress for honoring this organization and its great contributions to our country.”
