RCR: Takano is Sworn into Congress
“Yesterday, I took part in the swearing in ceremony to become a Member of the 113th Congress. As I made my way through the ceremonies and took part in several votes, one of the things I noticed about Congress was the relationships members have with each other,” Takano said. “While we may disagree about ways to grow our economy, improve our schools and pieces of legislation that should be considered, there is a great respect between all Members of Congress, no matter their party affiliation. In the coming weeks, whether the parties reconcile or not, I plan on finding members on the other side of the aisle to work with on ideas that will benefit our nation.”
