“I thank Mr. Raskin for the time, and I thank Mr. Levin for what he has done to bring this resolution to fruition. Madam Speaker, today I rise to defend the rights of our staff to organize. This really is about respect. We should respect their rights: Their right to have a decent day's pay for a hard day's work, their right to have the best healthcare that we can afford. I respect them, I support them, and I respect the right of all workers to organize. Hence, I will vote for the legislation.”
