I think it hurts the House. I think it's a loss for Illinois and I think it's a loss for our country. We need more men and women who are courageous, like Adam is.
But this is clearly the most egregious example of basically a quid pro quo and the negative that is if you do something, I'll take something away.
I want an aspirational leader that I could say to my son and grandson, grow up to be like him or her. And he fails that test miserably.
Personal circumstances kept me from voting on the following votes. Had I been present, I would have voted ``yea'' on rollcall No. 592--21st Century Cures. ``Yea'' on rollcall No. 593-- Intel Reauthorization. ____________________
