Political Quotes

On the recordDecember 9, 2015
I thank the gentlewoman, who is a great ranking member on the subcommittee, for all of her work and for her comments and words this evening. Mr. Speaker, having served on the subcommittee with the gentleman from Oregon (Mr. Schrader), he is a great advocate for forest products, for healthy forests, for economically healthy rural communities. We share that passion. I am just very thankful that he was able to, in a very busy schedule, make time this evening to be part of this Special Order. I yield to the gentleman from Oregon (Mr. Schrader).
