Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, this is a very difficult time for Members because we are talking about world issues. Tomorrow, we will be talking about world issues, as well, and that is the final adjournment. If we do not do our work, the funding of the Ukraine money, the money for Indo-Pacific security, and the money for the struggling people who need 21st century peace, and, of course, Israel and the Palestinians. This is the example. We can't get the southern border, but we can also not provide safety for our children. These are children around the world. I have fought for Russia to stop stealing Ukrainian children. We cannot do it without providing the war funding that we need, and we cannot do southern border protection, if you will, without understanding that it is not just war that you deal with at the southern border. You deal with human beings. Having been here for a period of time, Mr. Speaker, I can tell you that we are dealing with immigration. Immigration is humanity. So I ask the people who are here in this body to deal with humanity and to deal with our children. That means we will get all the funding bills, and, yes, we will get the bills that will not make playgrounds war zones. That is what we are doing. Let's save our children and save them now. ____________________”
