I would like to in just a minute yield to my colleague from Florida (Ms. Graham), who would like to take the floor and talk about poverty in her own community. She has been such a tremendous voice on eliminating poverty and working to lift those who live below the poverty line out of poverty. We know that families around the country living on the minimum wage have to make choices each and every day. She knows that. She is here to speak to that. I really appreciate her presence tonight on the floor. I yield now to the gentlewoman from Florida (Ms. Graham).
