IMMIGRATION DIVERSITY AND UNITY
(Mr. TRONE asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. TRONE. Mr. Speaker, after spending most of my life in the
business world, I have seen firsthand how immigrants bring immense
contributions to American business. Whether it is a CEO of a Fortune
500 company or the frontline worker who has kept our workers safe
during the COVID-19 pandemic, immigrant workers, entrepreneurs, and
leaders drive our economy.
Immigrants bring revolutionary new ideas to our country. Immigrants
create jobs. Immigrants inspire innovation that pushes us forward as a
country, keeping us on the cutting edge of technology and medical
advances.
As the Speaker often says, ``diversity is our strength, unity is our
power.''
Immigrants bring their diverse experiences and ideas to our country,
to our economy, and make it better. Our Nation would be foolish to take
them for granted.
