I thank Congresswoman Alma Adams for her comments. It is always a pleasure when we have the opportunity to work together. And I say to Congressman Torres that that is what we are going to do tonight. I could not think of a better segue than to pitch it to Representative Torres. We have two members of the Congressional Black Caucus from the great State of New York. I am so used to saying the great State of Ohio, but tonight we have two freshman members of the Congressional Black Caucus who have been great supporters to our message, our power, who have been fearless leaders.

Madam Speaker, I yield to the gentleman from New York (Mr. Torres.)
