On the recordNovember 7, 2017
Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate my colleague, Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee, and the Houston Astros for winning the 2017 Major League Baseball World Series. The Astros finally earned history this season by winning their first World Series title. But they weren't the only ones to earn something by beating my Los Angeles Dodgers. Congresswoman Jackson Lee also earned some of LA's iconic Philippe's French dip sandwiches as part of our friendly wager.

I am more than happy to listen to the cries of judicial activism, but we can no longer sit here and just pick when we like it and when we do not because it fits the politics of our time or the narrative that we are interested in.
