James Hill: “To start this tribute to George Bush, what better person to call on…”

On the recordJune 11, 2024

To start this tribute to George Bush, what better person to call on than the distinguished gentlewoman from Texas, someone who also moved to Texas to find her career and find her success just like George H.W. Bush did, as well. Beth Van Duyne distinctly represents north Texas. She is a former mayor of Irving. She is a former official, the regional administrator for the Department of Housing and Urban Development for President Trump. She has been at the top of her game in the executive branch, in this legislative branch, the House of Representatives, and in local government as a city councilwoman and mayor. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentlewoman from Texas (Ms. Van Duyne), my friend.
