Fighting for What's Right

December 10, 2010
Dear Friends,

This week was a full week in Washington. In particular, my Democratic Colleagues and I were busy fighting to extend unemployment benefits that are due to expire. The Republicans would let them expire. While there are some who would like to exchange the extension of the unemployment benefits in exchange for extending the Bush-era tax cuts for the wealthy, there are real questions as to whether this makes sense for the nation in both the short-term and the long term. One thing for certain, I will continue to stand up for the hard working families in America and do what's right for our country.

INSKEEP: "You've lost your committee chairmanship. Your party has lost the majority in the House. And you've been censured by the House of Representatives. How do you start over after all that?"

RANGEL: "Well, I don't know when(ph) you really start over. When you're 80 years old, you don't start over, you continue. And like every setback that I think that most people have, you analyze what went wrong, try to correct it, and move forward."
