This is an unofficial transcript meant for reference. Accuracy is not guaranteed.
Pete, an historic victory in for
the GOP in Florida,
Republican, Kat, Cammack sweeping
states third congressional
district.
She became the youngest
republican woman in Congress.
That woman joins me fresh off
her win.
You have to be elated
at thirty two years old. You have
accomplished something. Few could
imagine
what has it been like the last
couple of days for you
PETE. It has been absolutely
incredible.
Just the most humbling
experience of my life
so honored that I have the trust
and support of the constituents
of Floridas Third congressional
district and, as I have said on
the campaign trail only in
America, can someone go from
homeless to the House of
representatives under a decade
to join the ranks of the
incredible 117Th Congress, as
the youngest woman in the GOP in
the country im so incredibly
humbled and frightful for the
trust and grateful for the
trust of our constituents.
Pete impressive background.
Only in America,
youre going into a city where
half of that city believes
America is defined by sin,
one thousand six hundred and nineteen founding of our nation
that America is the problem.
How do you revive that view of
our country?
It starts with why?
Why did so? Many of our
colleagues get involved in the
process in the first place
in other to serve and to take
that oath serve the United
States constitution. You have a
long road to travel
for me being the daughter, after
single mother,
our family, losing everything
really working class background
when we share our stories and
show people that you can really
achieve beyond your wildest
dreams. I think that is what
brings us together,
because my story is not a
republican story.
It is not a democrat story. It
is an american story.
Im really excited about the
opportunity to share that with
women, but also millenials and
GEN Zs having a voice at the
table for the next generation
has been something that has been
mission.
Im excited to deliver that
message and really be that
voice.
I think at this point in time. In
our divided nation, we need
people that look at the problems
and solutions as Americans, not
one party versus another
PETE. President Trump turned the
Republican Party into the parity
of the working class that stands
up for the forgotten men and
women
that what what will be your
approach as you go into the
117Th Congress for working
men and women,
it comes down to the America
First agenda, the America First
platform really focusing on the
things that made our country
great,
securing our supply chain,
really focusing on reducing the
size of federal government and
making it so that Americans can
make the best decisions for
themselves and their families.
I dont believe a big
bureaucratic government is best
suited for that.
My constituents dont either
having that message empowering
people having equal opportunity
out there rather than equal
outcomes. That is what were
fighting for in this country.
Pete opportunity versus
outcome, a huge difference.
