Mr. President, I rise today to honor the bravery and selfless service of the first responders who responded to horrific tragedy in Surfside, FL, on June 24, 2021, when the Champlain Towers South condo building suddenly collapsed in the middle of the night. We are incredibly grateful to Mexico for sending its search and rescue specialists to aid in the response, including the ``Go Team'' of Cadena International, a Jewish nonprofit which has responded to more than 1,000 natural disasters and humanitarian crises since 2005. The Mexico-based team worked tirelessly in Surfside with search, rescue, and recovery efforts. We cannot thank them enough for their willingness to risk their lives for others in this incredibly dangerous work. They are heroes. Their commitment and willingness to serve will never be forgotten. In the face of tremendous loss, the Cadena International team heeded the call to action, and for that, we will be eternally grateful. We are incredibly grateful to these heroes and their families for their bravery and determination in the face of this terrible tragedy. Ann and I continue to pray for the Surfside community, our Jewish community, the families and loved ones of the lost, and all of those who worked tirelessly to serve the Surfside community. ____________________
