Political Quotes

“All of us are concerned about the bullying of Communist China. I hope as we move forward, this committee that has been voted on will emphasize the bullying, but it will not emphasize the negativism that occurred during COVID with ``Kung Flu'' and dealing with the intimidation and the increase of Asian hatred and violence. That is why some of us were concerned enough not to support this legislation. Mr. Speaker, let me also say that in addition to wanting us to do better, I am excited about introducing the Battle Buddy Check legislation that has our veterans check on each other, just as if they are on the battlefield, to stop the rise of veteran suicide. Have a battle buddy. This legislation is hopefully to save lives of our soldiers who are now veterans who have done all that they could for America. Mr. Speaker, I am excited about the introduction of the Lyndon Baines Johnson Congressional Gold Medal. Lyndon Baines Johnson will be looked upon as one of the greatest Presidents, giving opportunity to those who never had it in education and healthcare and the environment and criminal justice reform and the right to vote and civil rights. I ask my colleagues to join me in the Congressional Gold Medal for Lyndon Baines Johnson. ____________________”
