The speaker pro tempore without objection, the gentleman is recognized for one minute. Thank you, mr. Speaker. I rise today in strong opposition to h. R. 582 which would more than double the federal minimum wage. Numerous studies show that doubling the minimum wage to 15 an hour would be catastrophic for Small Businesses. The Congressional Budget Office estimates that this bill would result in the loss of up to 3. 7 million jobs. Which is approximately the same number of people that live in the state of oklahoma. Mr. Spano when i started my own business i went without a salary for a full year to invest in the business, pay for overhead and keep my employees paid. I could not have borne these expenses under a 15 minimum wage. I think of my schedulers, naomi hilton. As a teenager, i hired her in my Small Business to be receptionist in my office. Within a year she was promoted to legal assistant, then paralegal and eventually she earned more than 15 an hour. If not for a much lower minimum wage i would never have been able to start my business, hire nay oh nee, and naomi and pay her more than the minimum wage required in this bill. I support wages for all. I yield back. The speaker pro tempore for what purpose does the gentleman from rhode island seek recognition . Without objection, the gentleman s recognized for one minute. Mr. Langevin im a congressman in no small part due to the a. D. A. Inclusivity is not abstract to me. Diversity is not just a buzzword. This weekend, our nation confronted bigotry and discrimination, the vile opposites of these virtues. That we did so is not surprise, our country is not perfect, built as it is on the original sin of slavery. But the source of these racist remarks shocked all my colleagues as they came from the president s from he this president himself. The president s tweet attacking my fellow representatives is inexcusable. Theres no possible context in which theyd be acceptable. Theyre a product of his world view that prizes division and conflict. I believe in compromise. I believe in trying to Work Together to better our country even when we disagree. But that spirit of tolerance cannot extend to the blatantly racist and xenophobic rhetoric. I vetted i voted yesterday to condemn the president s remark bus that should never have been necessary. Our country is better than the example this president is setting and i hope we can heal after this dark chapter. I yield back.

The life of this young mother of four was not lost but taken as are the lives of many other native american women across the nation. Rosindas case is one of 71 unsolved cases involving missing and murdered Indigenous Women in washington state. Since she went missing last october, her loved ones have rallied to Bring National attention to the alarming high number of murder and violence rate facing native american women across the country. Children are left without mothers. Parents are left without daughters. And communities are left questioning their safety and their future. This crisis can no longer be ignored. Congress must act to deliver justice to victims like rosinda and so many others like her. Thank you, mr. Speaker, i yield back.

I rise today to celebrate the accomplishments of laura and natalia coronado, twin cysters who graduated from Florida International university with bachelor degrees in computer engineering. Now theyre starting careers work wrg intel. They are making south florida proud and setting an example for women and girls every where. Breaking into a career field that is dominated by men is not easy. Believe me, i know. It is up to all of us to create a society where women are encouraged to pursue careers in stem and that means promoting diversity and supporting equal opportunity.
