Political Quotes

“I usually don't like speaking on the floor very much. It is not one of my favorite things to do, but I will tell you right now, this was something I wasn't going to miss. Tim Reitz has been a friend to me in many ways. He has been a mentor and counselor to me. As a matter of fact, I called him this morning because I missed a meeting last night, and Tim gave me a recap and helped explain to me what went on last night. If you really want to know how valuable and important Tim Reitz is to the House Freedom Caucus, the conservative movement, for saving and protecting this country, all you have to do is look around. It is about 5:30 p.m. right now. We are done for the day, most of us. We don't have to be here, but I counted eight Members of Congress who came to speak on behalf of Tim Reitz. You don't see that very often. You are probably never going to see eight Members of Congress coming to speak when a valuable staffer like Tim Reitz is moving on. Tim, I hope that is not lost on you, brother. There are a lot of places we could be right now, but all of us are down here because of what you mean to this group and what you mean to the country. I am a little bummed that you are moving on. I know you are not going to be far. I think the role that you are taking is going to be instrumental for the country.”
