Political Quotes

“Madam Speaker, with the negotiations surrounding the fiscal cliff, the administration is ignoring sequestration. This important issue must be addressed which devastates national security and destroys 700,000 jobs. In addition, I am grateful for the opportunity to offer a fond farewell to two hardworking staffers, Ryann DuRant, office scheduler, and Master Gunnery Sergeant Michelle King, military Fellow of the United States Marine Corps. Both women have served with dedication to the people of South Carolina's Second Congressional District. Michelle is relocating to the Pentagon where she will work with the Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Office. Ryann is taking a legislative correspondent and press assistant position with her new hometown representative of Myrtle Beach, Congressman-elect Tom Rice. Their competence, hard work, and good humor will be missed. We wish them all the best of success in the future. In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget September the 11th in the global war on terrorism. ____________________”
