This is the last day of the first session of the 114th Congress. I have served here for 9 years. I am proud to be a Member, and I look forward to continuing to be a Member in the future. In the last 2 months of this year, we have gotten a lot accomplished by working together. The omnibus and tax extender bills weren't unanimous, but they got a majority of each caucus. I was proud to support each. We got a transportation and an education bill passed, which was very important. This House does work. It worked under Speaker Ryan, working with Leader Pelosi. I thank all of the leaders and all of the people involved in getting these last two bills together and everyone who supported them. I also thank the people for allowing me to be a Member of this House. I am proud to be a Member of the House of Representatives. ____________________
