Cazayoux Stays Clear of Controversy at Swearing in
Rep. Don Cazayoux (D-La.) was just sworn into the lower chamber and delivered a brief speech. Rep. William Jefferson, the most senior Democrat from Louisiana who is battling federal charges, introduced Cazayoux on the House floor.
Unlike Rep. Jackie Speier (D-Calif.) — whose first floor speech on Iraq following her swearing in last month attracted boos — Cazayoux stayed clear of any controversy.
He thanked this family, friends and constituents and said he is looking forward to working with his colleagues in the House.
Cazayoux defeated Woody Jenkins in a special election Saturday for retired Rep. Richard Baker’s (R-La.) seat.
