Mr. Speaker, I am so proud to stand here today on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives to recognize the upcoming 50th anniversary of my alma mater, Florida International University, on April 6, 2015. Not only is FIU worlds ahead in finding solutions to the most challenging problems of our time, but the university and the entire FIU community has moved Miami-Dade County worlds ahead as well. Since its founding in 1965, FIU has grown alongside south Florida and has helped enable the region's notable progress and evolution over the last five decades.
