Maryland Rep. Steny Hoyer announces retirement during speech on House floor

Published | Video Starts at 06:52

We must remember that we are not great or unique because we say we are great, but because we are just, generous and fair. I hope that spirit can guide us the rest of this Congress because I still have much I want to do in the coming year, not least of which is keeping the government open. To do that, we must send all our appropriations bills to the President in a bipartisan, timely fashion. There are many people I intend to thank in the coming months, but there are few I will recognize now. (06:52–06:59)
