Black Hawk County Democrats - Feb. 20, 2022
February 20, 2022
We address this workforce shortage; we address this workforce crisis; we address this education crisis; we address the lack of availability to health care and mental health care with one thing folks – a new governor. That’s how we address it. I’m confident, I don’t have all the answers but I got quite a few, but I am confident that Iowa knows what's good for Iowa. I am confident that these cookie cutter copy and pasted bills from Florida and Texas, are no good for us. They are no good […]

Remarks in Wilmington - Aug. 12, 2020
August 12, 2020
… find ourselves in now. When other countries are following the science, Trump pushed a miracle cures he saw on Fox News. While other countries, were flattening the curve, he said the virus would just, poof, go away – like a miracle. So when other countries opened up for business, what did we do? We had to shut down again. This virus has impacted almost every country. But there is a reason it has hit America worse than any other advanced nation. It's because of Trump 's failure to take […]

Counter to Republican National Convention - Aug. 27, 2020
August 27, 2020
Good afternoon. On the eve of the 57th march on Washington, I will speak about: the recent events in Kenosha, Wisconsin; the wildfires raging against the California coast to the Rocky Mountains; the storm, which is working its way through Texas, Louisiana, and the Gulf Coast; and most of all, about who we are as a country. We are a nation that at its best, loves, protects, and helps our fellow Americans. Today, we see pain, hurt, and destruction in the ashes of wildfires and the damage of hurricane Laura. […]

Thank you, Joe. Thank you, Joe. As I said Joe, when you called me, “I am incredibly honored by this responsibility, and I'm ready to get to work.” I am ready to get to work. After the most competitive primary in history, the country received a resounding message that Joe was the person to lead us forward. And Joe I'm so proud to stand with you, and I do so mindful of all the heroic and ambitious women before me; whose sacrifice, determination, and resilience makes my presence here today […]

Democratic National Convention Speech - Aug. 18, 2020
August 18, 2020
I have always loved the sounds of a classroom. The quiet that sparks with possibility just before students shuffle in. The murmur of ideas bouncing back and forth as we explore the world together. The laughter and tiny moments of surprise you find in materials you’ve taught a million times. When I taught English here at Brandywine High School, I would spend my summer preparing for the school year about to start—filled with anticipation. But this quiet is heavy. You can hear the anxiety that echoes down empty hallways. There’s […]

Republican National Committee Speech - Aug. 25, 2020
August 25, 2020
Good evening, it seems like just yesterday that we were at our first convention, where my husband accepted the Republican nomination and then became our 45th president of the United States. He had the energy and enthusiasm for who should lead this nation. It's real today as it was four years ago. I know I speak for my husband and the entire family when I say we have not forgotten the incredible people who were willing to take a chance on the businessman who has never worked in politics. We […]

Democratic National Convention Remarks - Aug. 20, 2020
August 20, 2020
Good evening, I'm Tammy Duckworth. When I first enlisted in the Army, I was eager to serve my country yet anxious whether I'd be able to earn my way into the ranks. But I earned my wings and later commanded my own air assault unit, learning that serving and leading in the military is both a privilege and a sacrifice. To be a commander you must always put your troops first because one day you may order them to sacrifice everything for our great nation. To do that leaders must […]
