Bruce Westerman Republican
“I want the House to pass this bill. It honors Medal of Honor recipients and everyone who served in the military.”
“Mr. Speaker, this is a good bill that honors Hershel ``Woody’’ Williams, our Nation’s heroic Medal of Honor recipients, and all those who have served. It honors their memory. It honors their legacy, and it reaffirms our unwavering commitment to upholding the principles for which they fought so valiantly. Once again, I thank Representative Moore of Utah and Senator Justice of West Virginia for their leadership in this effort. I thank the Senate for actually passing a bill even if they needlessly changed it. Now we can hopefully get something to the President’s desk. I urge passage of this bill and look forward to seeing President Trump sign it into law. Mr. Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time.”
