Congressman Steve Watkins Delivers Maiden Speech On House Floor

Washington, D.C. - Today, Congressman Steve Watkins (KS-02) delivered his maiden speech on the House floor. The transcript and link to the video are below.

"Many Kansans have followed the path from military to political service. Names like Pompeo, Roberts, Dole, Eisenhower.

I stand on the shoulders of giants. 

I do so with humility, and with gratitude, that the people of Kansas have bestowed upon me, such an honor. 

To my fellow Kansans - I won’t let you down.  

To my colleagues - We’ll have our disagreements and debates. We should. 

But we should also maintain civility and integrity.  

And we should work to make government more efficient, accountable, and effective.

God bless the 116th Congress, the great people of Kansas, and God bless America."
