  Mrs. DINGELL. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize Comcast 
Xfinity and their employees on the date of their store's grand opening 
in Taylor. Comcast Xfinity has become an important component of our 
Michigan community by utilizing our current infrastructure and 
workforce to deliver more affordable, efficient, and assessible 
internet services to consumers statewide.
  Originally established in April 1981 as Comcast Cable, Xfinity has 
grown significantly and transformed the southeast Michigan community. 
While employing thousands of individuals across Michigan, Xfinity has 
simultaneously developed new infrastructure to provide countless 
businesses and residents alike with quality cable and internet access. 
Their facilities have improved our region, showcasing it as a 
competitor in the market of technology and innovation. Xfinity's 
continued commitment to our state is exemplified in the company's 
expansion into the Taylor community.
  Comcast Xfinity's investment in opening a Taylor facility underscores 
the city's reputation as a center for growth, innovation, and 
advancement. With this new store, Xfinity will provide residents and 
businesses with the ability to access the latest technologies, 
products, and services. Xfinity's new store will significantly 
contribute to Michigan's telecommunications industry in the coming 
years.
  Madam Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in honoring Comcast 
Xfinity during the grand opening of the Comcast Xfinity Store in 
Taylor. This critical investment will provide Michigan's ambitious 
workforce and residents with access to the newest technologies in cable 
and internet services.
