Eddie Bernice Johnson: “I support the adoption of this amendment.”

Mr. Speaker, I rise today with great pleasure to pay tribute to the life and legacy of former Speaker of the House James "Jim" Wright, who passed away on Wednesday, May 6, at the age of 92.

Speaker Wright was a visionary who served the people of Fort Worth and this Nation well.

Diversity fosters a wider range of ideas and approaches, leading to more innovative solutions and better problem-solving capabilities in the scientific community.

I don't agree that the blame game of Republicans or the prior Administration holds any significance to where we are.
