Cotton Statement on
Thanksgiving
Washington, D.C. — Senator
Tom Cotton (R-Arkansas) released the following statement on Thanksgiving:
“More than four centuries ago, our Pilgrim fathers joined with the
Wampanoag tribe for the first Thanksgiving. The Pilgrims suffered many
hardships and trials in the wilderness of the New World, but they bowed their
heads and thanked God for giving them a special mission here on Earth. Today,
the nation they helped to build stretches thousands of miles from Plymouth Rock
to the shimmering shores of the Pacific. We have much to be grateful for as a
nation. But most of all, we should be grateful that our special mission continues.
From the Cotton family to yours, we wish you and your loved ones a happy
Thanksgiving.”
