Mr. Speaker, I begin by thanking the people of one of the most diverse districts in America, my home, California's 14th Congressional District. In the gallery today are people from across our district, representing different walks of life, from educational backgrounds, economic circumstances, and immigration stories. Yet, every single one of them is an American, and every one of them believes in the American Dream, a dream rooted in a simple promise, that we are all created equal and that, no matter where we begin, each of us deserves an opportunity for a better life.
