Mr. Speaker, I rise today to celebrate my friend, Cathy McMorris Rodgers. From taking on TikTok, as we have talked about, to boosting America's energy strategy, Chairwoman Rodgers has been our fearless leader for the last 4 years on the Committee on Energy and Commerce and as Conference chair before that. I am most thankful for her commitment to taking care of our Nation's children, all our children. Through her efforts on kids' online privacy and safety, as well as on improving health outcomes for babies, children, and mothers, her passion and hard work have never wavered. We are sad to see her go but wish her God's richest blessings in her next stage of life, for it is God who guided her good and principled representation of those she served. The State of Washington and her family are lucky to have her back. Maybe I would change that from lucky to blessed to have her back full time. Thank you, Madam Chair, for your years of service to this country, the committee, the God you serve, and Members like me who so appreciated your leadership. God bless you.
