Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, I rise today before the House of Representatives to commend Walter Puddifer, Tom Garner, Hugh Lofting II, Dan DiGregorio, David MacDonald, and Burnett H. Wilson III for their heroism. On Tuesday, August 4, in our community of Chester County, amidst fast-moving floodwaters, these six men risked their own lives and saved a father and children from sinking in a vehicle. It is so important in these trying times to try to recognize the brave, heroic acts that everyday Americans are committing. This story is not an isolated incident. There are countless stories across the country of people stepping up to save lives: healthcare workers, essential workers, and, indeed, the average person who sees somebody in need and drops everything to help. Mr. Speaker, I thank these brave Pennsylvanians, and I enter their names into the Congressional Record for their selfless and courageous acts of service. ____________________”
