On the recordNovember 2, 2015
Congratulations to America's new Speaker of the House, Paul Davis Ryan. I have been grateful to serve with the Speaker for a number of years, and I know he is a proven conservative. I know his positive commitment to the people of the First District of Wisconsin and every corner of our Nation, which he visited while campaigning in 2012. I look forward to Speaker Ryan's conservative leadership, cited in the National Journal Daily as ``chief Democratic villain in Washington.'' He was also condemned as a ``budget-slashing fiend.'' Despite these attacks, his service will advance meaningful, conservative change for the American people, limiting government, and expanding freedom. Congress has a positive leader, as we work to promote a strong national defense of peace through strength. The Economist identified the Speaker as a dogmatic conservative with faith in supply-side reform for growth-boosting. In conclusion, God bless our troops, and the President, by his actions, must never forget September the 11th in the global war on terrorism. Our sympathy and prayers to the people of Russia upon the deaths of 224 persons onboard the Metrojet charter flight in Egypt. ____________________
