Eddie Bernice Johnson: “It has been said that Congress is one of the few places where you can find the rhetoric of climate change denial alive…”

He is among the most influential Speakers in the history of the House of Representatives.

He understood that the business of legislating and good politics required great skill in the art of compromise.

We want people who are intellectually curious, I think, to get those people and get them into the field.

I don't agree that the blame game of Republicans or the prior Administration holds any significance to where we are.
