“I have come to this floor many times to be able to talk about a lot of serious policy issues, to be able to walk through all different kinds of tax policy, energy policy, immigration policy. We have worked through a lot of different issues on this floor, and I have had the opportunity to be able to speak on a lot of issues. I don't often take time just to be able to pause and talk about a cultural issue. I want to do that today. This weekend, the Nation will pause and celebrate Father's Day.”
