Political Quotes

“I thank my friend, Congressman Weber, for putting this Special Order together. I know it is probably odd seeing a Democrat up here, but let it be known: Kay and I go way back. I've known her since the 1990's, when she made history as the first woman Mayor of Fort Worth, while also being a single mom. Even then, she had that Texas grit and determination that's carried her through a lifetime of breaking barriers. As the first woman to represent the 12th District of Texas, Kay showed what it means to lead with heart and conviction. She's fought for her community every step of the way, never backing down from a challenge. They say, ''Don't mess with Texas,'' but really, don't mess with a Texas woman on a mission. Texas--and this Congress--will miss her. ____________________”
