My father walked out on my family when I was a kid. My mother raised us. I made my own way, joined the Marines, and built a life he had no part in. There are thousands of American boys doing the same thing right now, growing up determined to be better men than the fathers who left them.

@JeremyECrawford This seems to say that since a reaction may not take place during your turn your (readied/opportunity) attack is not an Attack action but a special action

And they’re right.
Thank you to the people of the Bronx and Queens for re-electing me to another term in Congress.
As a waitress, I never thought serving in Congress would ever be a reality.
It will always remain the honor of my life to serve our community.
