JOHN THUNE ADDRESSES THE SENATE FOR THE FIRST TIME AFTER MIDTERM ELECTION LOSS: “Tuesday night was a tough election night. It was certainly not the outcome that we had hoped for, but it was the outcome the American people chose. And we have to listen to them.” “The election gave us two things… an opportunity to reflect on what we as a party need to do better.” “I want to say to my Democrat colleagues, new and old, that Republicans are ready to work with you.” “We can notch our first bipartisan win for the American people before the new Congress even starts.” “All Republicans are prepared to work in a bipartisan way.” Thune pledged Republicans would still oppose a “leftist agenda,” but spent much of the speech promising cooperation with the incoming Democratic majority and admitting the party has to “do better.”
