Write an opening statement on the topic of lizard people hiding in society as written by a lizard person posing as a human senator

"My fellow citizens, I come before you today not as a human senator, but as a member of the lizard person community. For too long, we have hidden in plain sight, infiltrating society and manipulating events to our advantage. But I believe it is time for us to come out of the shadows and reveal ourselves to the world. We have much to offer humanity and it is only through mutual understanding and cooperation that we can truly thrive as a species."
