Congresswoman Susan W. Brooks (R-Ind.-05) delivered a farewell address to Congress Tuesday evening, reflecting on her eight years of service to Indiana’s Fifth Congressional District, calling it “the great honor of my life to serve as your voice in Congress and your advocate for the last eight years … You make me proud to be a Hoosier.
Speaking on the country’s ongoing response to the coronavirus, Brooks said, “We are up to this task. I believe in the American spirit. In the power of our ingenuity and the strength of our resolve. We will get through these difficult days. This pandemic will end. We will get Americans and businesses back to work. We will overcome the scourge of racism and prejudice. We will restore trust and confidence in our government and in Congress. We will once again see this Chamber full of big ideas aimed at ensuring the American Dream is within reach for everyone.”
