Political Quotes

“In the calamity of news reports proliferating across America regarding the epidemic proportions of child sexual abuse, I introduce Zero Tolerance For Child Sexual Abuse, H.R. 3650. I ask my colleagues to join me for a national statement of abhorring and standing against the abuse of our children. On a much happier topic, I thank our leader for her comments on our returning troops, and I look forward to introducing a resolution thanking and congratulating our returning troops, having one day or two days in which our Members will join me in wearing a yellow ribbon and, as well, commemorating the return of our wonderful troops and thanking their families from wherever they have come for this holiday season. What greater gift than the men and women who have served on the front lines to honor us by their presence here in the holiday season. Our message should be ``no silent State, no silent neighborhood, no silent community'' in reference to honoring them as they come home. ____________________”
