Mr. Speaker, I thank Representative Sorensen so much. I am so grateful for his leadership and support. Mr. Speaker, there are diverse groups and organizations that support the Dignity Act, from the evangelical community, to the American Chamber of Commerce, to ABIC, the American Business Immigration Council.

Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentlewoman from Michigan (Ms. Slotkin), who is an incredible leader here in Congress and a colleague, a classmate that I was elected to Congress with, another cosponsor of the Dignity Act.
