The ties between the United States, Mexico, and Canada are longstanding and deep; and I am pleased that the United States can continue to come together in partnership with our friends from both of those countries on the United Bid Committee to try to bring the 2026 World Cup to North America. I stand ready to support the North American bid in any way that I can. It would really be terrific to get it, and I know we all feel the same way. Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues to support this resolution, and I yield back the balance of my time.
