Mr. Speaker, as a cosponsor of H.R. 3104, the Ukrainian Adjustment Act, I am calling for prompt consideration and passage of this important legislation. We have Ukrainians across this country who came here following Russia's invasion on humanitarian parole. They have contributed to our communities in countless ways. They entered the United States legally. They passed rigorous vetting. They have created lives here, and they have contributed in so many different ways to both our communities and our economy.

Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor and congratulate Child Action for celebrating 50 years of service to the Sacramento community. Child Action is a nonprofit organization that has been supporting children and families since 1976. Rooted in the qualities of compassion, community, and support, Child Action has provided affordable and quality childcare to over 19,000 children throughout Sacramento County. When childcare is affordable, educational, and accessible, it greatly benefits the whole regional economy.
Mr. Speaker, as a cosponsor of the No Aid for Ghost Students Act, I am very glad that it passed our committee with overwhelming bipartisan support, and I look forward to it receiving bipartisan support on the floor. {time} 1930 Our experience in California has demonstrated the need for this legislation. California community colleges were victimized by a staggering amount of fraud. We learned there were 1.2 million fraudulent applicants. One-third of the applicants were fake.
Biography
Kevin Kiley represents California’s 3rd congressional district in the House, first elected in 2022 and now serving as an independent after leaving the Republican Party in 2026 over what he described as frustration with partisanship. A two-term member and former California state assemblyman, he has focused his congressional work on wildfire prevention, education policy, and government oversight. He serves on the House Judiciary and Education and the Workforce committees, where his stated priorities have included wildfire response resources and scrutiny of government spending. Explaining the move, Kiley said, "I answer to my constituents, not to party leaders in Washington, D.C."
