Sen. Thune: ‘To My Democrat Colleagues ... Republicans Are Ready to Work with You to Address the American People’s Concerns’

TRANSCRIPT:

THUNE: “Madam President, I want to offer my congratulations to all those who won on Tuesday. I want to especially welcome our new Republican senators and our new Democrat senators as well. And I want to say to my Democrat colleagues, new and old, that Republicans are ready to work with you to address the American people’s concerns. As I suggested, we can notch our first bipartisan win for the American people before the new Congress even starts by passing permanent reform in the coming days.”
