Rep. Joe Kennedy III Says Country’s Future Is 'Big And Bright' In Farewell Speech To Congress

BOSTON — With less than a month left in office, Massachusetts Rep. Joe Kennedy III gave his farewell speech to Congress on the House Floor Wednesday.

In his speech, he thanked his colleagues, constituents and family while also saying the future of the nation is “big and bright”.

“Our arc isn’t clean, but it is clear: Each generation expands the definition of WE. We suffer setbacks. We get pushed off-track and sometimes can’t feel the progress. We fight amongst ourselves. But still – generation after generation – we expand,” said Kennedy. “Our future is big and bright, but it will take everything and everyone to reach it. I hope that a new generation of Americans will rise knowing that the People’s House stands tall for them.”
