Rep. John Delaney (D-Maryland) joined about 70 other
congressmen in 96 degree heat at the Capitol Thursday to showcase their
membership in a bi-partisan group that is working to “make Congress
work” and to “make government work,” unveiling nine bills to help do
that.
“This great nation was built based on transformative ideas
and bold and extraordinary actions,” Delaney said on stage. “And every
one of those ideas and every one of those actions was done at the
intersection of principle and compromise,” he continued. “That is our
way forward.”
The freshman congressman says that he joined No Labels
because he’s looking for “every opportunity to work in a bipartisan
manner.” And because that’s what he and at least 70 other congressmen
believe need to be done.
“So any opportunity, any kind of venue, any convening
function that puts people together and allows us to work on the problems
of the day I’m supportive of,” Delaney said.
