Mr. Speaker, as we say in west Texas, amen and amen. I could listen to Representative Roy all night because he speaks from his heart and from a passion for his country and for his fellow countrymen. He is a truth seeker and a fighter for all that is good about this country. We are glad the gentleman is here as part of the great delegation of Texas. We are all better in this body because of his presence and his service as a Member of Congress. May God bless the gentleman. I thank him for his words tonight. Now, I want to invite another colleague who is a lover of freedom and a great patriot, who is unabashed and beaming in his pride for the United States of America. Mr. Allen is another gentleman who could be doing a lot of things. He is an accomplished businessman who could be doing a lot of things and spending a lot of quality time with his children and grandchildren, but, once again, he believes that the best way he can love his family and love those grandchildren is to hand them a better, stronger, safer, and freer United States of America. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentleman from the 12th District of Georgia (Mr. Allen), who is my dear friend.
