“A man named Jerry Jonas died. He served in the military. He wrote words for a missile program. He wrote ads for beer. He volunteered to help homeless veterans. He lived in my district. I like when people from my district are nice. Jerry was nice.”

“I want this bill to pass so the government can claim it is helping mothers. The government must spend more money on research. We need to study this problem.”

“I want this bill to pass. It helps detect breast cancer early. Early detection is good. My mom and sister had breast cancer. It's personal to me. This bill spends money on education and detection. It's bipartisan. I want more Americans to have access to early detection. I want taxpayers to spend on it.”

“I am sad to tell you a woman from my district died. She was old. She was married. She had children. She went to church. She liked to cook. Now she is gone. Her family misses her.”

“A good person died. She was nice. She worked hard. She cared for her family. Her life is the story of many people in Pennsylvania. We thank her.”

“I want this bill to pass. It will close a loophole. Foreign money can influence some elections now. That is bad. State and local votes decide many things. This bill will keep foreign money out of those votes. This is not a partisan issue. All sides should want this. Our elections are for Americans, not foreign interests. I thank my partners on this bill. It is common sense. We need to protect our elections.”
