“I thank my good friend from Wisconsin for yielding tonight. Madam Speaker, I have got to tell you, it is a pretty unique and cool feeling to stand in this well and hold onto this podium for the last time. What an honor it is to serve in this House and stand in this Chamber. I want to take a moment, as I give my last address to the House, to thank my constituents who have put so much faith in me that they would give me the opportunity--a guy from small town Wisconsin, from Hayward, Wisconsin, who had a big family and grew up doing lumberjack sports--to come here and represent them. And they have done that five times, five times over. I would just note that they have been so kind to me, whether they agreed with me or not. Whether I was at a townhall or a Lincoln Day dinner or a dairy breakfast or a parade or affair, the kindness that has come from my constituents as I have done my best to serve their interests could not fill my heart with greater pride and joy to represent the good people of Wisconsin's Seventh Congressional District, which is the central, northern, and western part of our great State. But, as many of us will tell you, I don't think our Founders ever envisioned that to come to this Chamber should be a lifetime sentence. We are supposed to come, be citizen legislators, serve our time, and then step aside and let someone else step forward and do the good work.…”
