I rise today to wish the happiest of birthdays to the most beautiful woman on the planet. She is my wife, Dr. Kalisha Dessources Figures. I thank her for her investment in me. She has made me a better man, a better father, and a better person. A lot of Members say it, but I can say 100 percent there is no world in which there is a Congressman Shomari Figures without the support of my wife. Mr. Speaker, I love her, I thank her, and I wish my love the happiest of birthdays.
