Overheard -- Rep. Jim Himes

Science and truth remarkably always need advocacy against the forces of nostalgia and fear and irrationality. . . . At the end of the day, policy has to be guided by facts and truth. . . . I represent one of the most educated districts in the country. And so, I think my constituents expect this of me. 
 U.S. Rep. Jim Himes of Connecticut, who has proposed commemorating the birth date of Charles Darwin. Danbury News Times, 4-13-17
