US Flag Waving

"ALL OF THESE CHALLENGES WERE ADDRESSED BY CONGRESS. MAYBE NOT AS FAST AS WE WANTED, OR AS PERFECTLY AS HOPED. THE WORK IS CERTAINLY NOT FINISHED. BUT WE'VE MADE PROGRESS. AND IN EVERY CASE, FROM THE PASSAGE OF MEDICARE THROUGH THE PASSAGE OF CIVIL RIGHTS, WE DID IT WITH THE SUPPORT OF DEMOCRATS AND REPUBLICANS WHO CONSIDERED THEMSELVES FIRST AND FOREMOST TO BE AMERICANS." JOHN DINGELL 1926-2019
