WASHINGTON, D.C. - Today, House Budget Chairman Jodey Arrington (TX-19) spoke on the House floor to celebrate Texas Tech softball as they compete for a national championship this week:
Remarks As Delivered: Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize a group of remarkable young women from the plains of West Texas who are making history on the national stage - our Texas Tech Lady Raiders softball team. These athletes have battled all season long with an impressive drive, determination, and an unmistakable West Texas will to win that has taken them to the first Big 12 Championship in program history and a chance this week to win the College World Series. Coach Glasco and his Lady Raiders represent the best of West Texas values - hardworking, humble, and pure class on and off the field. Know this, Lady Raiders - all of West Texas and all of Red Raider Nation are cheering on our "Fearless Champions" as you "fight for the Scarlet and the Black." Now, go out there tonight - all gas and no breaks - beat those Texas Longhorns and then turn around and beat them again, and bring that championship trophy home to Lubbock, Texas where it belongs. Guns up and go West Texas. ### |
