Ed Garvey Quotes

I'm most enthused by the younger people...and I wouldn't have said that two years ago. I spoke at two college campuses in Wisconsin and the students weren't interested. Public Service was a dirty word to them. Now they see it differently. They see you can come together and have a positive impact. I'm encouraged because they now see that we can win on these issues.
