Congress recessed late last week and I am back at home in the 17th Congressional District. Like many Americans, I will have the privilege of celebrating Thanksgiving with my family. My thoughts and prayers are with those serving in uniform far from home.
As we celebrate this holiday, I am thankful for the honor of serving in Congress. We all share the hardship and uncertainty of an economy that has taken the worst turn since the Great Depression and the news is filled with the gloom of recession and bailout.
Even though this is a difficult time, I am optimistic and have hope that the new leadership of President-Elect Obama and a Democratic Majority in both the House and Senate will stop digging and begin to climb out of this hole. As we speak, The Obama Economic Team is working diligently to embark on a path to economic recovery that fosters both growth and stability.
I know that with your continued help and support we will successfully face the challenges ahead. The leaders of the Nation are determined and I am excited and honored to be a part.
