THANKING MICHIGAN'S 12TH DISTRICT

Congressional Record, Volume 171 Issue 3 (Tuesday, January 7, 2025) [Congressional Record Volume 171, Number 3 (Tuesday, January 7, 2025)] [House] [Page H53] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] {time} 1115 THANKING MICHIGAN'S 12TH DISTRICT (Ms. TLAIB asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.) Ms. TLAIB. Madam Speaker, I thank the incredible families of Michigan's 12th Congressional District for sending me back to Congress. I am truly honored to be able to be your voice in the people's House. As one of the only Members of the United States Congress who created neighborhood service centers, we have already returned over $6.2 million directly back into the pockets of many of my neighbors, invested $52 million in our communities, and assisted more than 10,000 of our families who needed help. As we begin the 119th Congress, I am determined more than ever to continue to fight for clean air, clean water, ending utility shutoffs, holding corporate polluters accountable, lowering the cost of living for working families, protecting Social Security and Medicare, and growing the Congressional Mamas Caucus, as well as, of course, ensuring equality and justice for all. To my residents, I thank them for believing in me. I will always have their backs, and I will never sell out. ____________________
