Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, on Friday, President Donald Trump took lifesaving action to begin the much-needed process of rebuilding our military. For the past 5 years, the failed policy of defense sequestration has forced our military to endure extreme reductions, dangerously affecting equipment, personnel, and training readiness. Under the order, Secretary of Defense Jim Mattis will review all aspects of military readiness. As chairman of the House Armed Services Subcommittee on Readiness, with four sons who have served overseas, I especially appreciate President Trump's commitment to rebuilding the military. It is critical for American families to ensure that our troops have the resources and training to accomplish their missions. This order is a positive first step, and I look forward to working alongside President Donald Trump, Vice President Mike Pence, Speaker Paul Ryan, and Chairman Mac Thornberry as we ensure our troops have the resources they need to promote peace through strength. God bless our troops. We will never forget September the 11th in the global war on terrorism. Thank you, President Donald Trump, for vetting refugees to protect American families. ____________________”
