I had the great honor as a sheriff in Florida representing the Florida Sheriffs Association to work with Matt Gaetz when he was in the House. I have to tell you, there is no one that works harder for the State of Florida and this country now that he is in Congress. I just want to thank him for the hard work. He has always been a great partner to work with. We had some great successes there, and then to come up here and actually be part of the first tax cuts and reform in over some 30-odd years was significant. Mr. Speaker, I yield to my colleague from north central Florida's Third District, Mr. Ted Yoho. He is a small-business owner himself who understands taxes and the regulatory burden that businesses face.
