Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, this week, I had the opportunity to visit Corpus Christi Police Officer Michael Love in the hospital as he recovers from injuries he sustained in the line of duty. Over the weekend, he was conducting a routine traffic stop when his patrol vehicle was struck, pinning him down. I had heard from many of his fellow officers of his optimistic and indomitable spirit, which I had the opportunity to witness firsthand when I visited him and his wife, Lauren, in the hospital. He told me that, despite everything he is going through, even knowing the months of recovery that lie ahead, he would still sign up to serve our community as a Corpus Christi police officer. We cannot express our gratitude enough for his sacrifice and his bravery. We must continue to pray for the safety of all our first responders, and support them as they protect us, as well as their families, who they hug a little bit tighter every day as they face the dangers that lie ahead. We are thankful for the loving, brave, and patriotic man that is Officer Michael Love, and for those who serve with him. ____________________”
