                     HONORING AMERICA'S IMMIGRANTS

  (Mr. CORREA asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. CORREA. Madam Speaker, today I rise to remind my colleagues of 
the contributions that immigrants have made to our country.
  I want to direct your attention to the poster next to me. This is 
Corporal Jose Angel Garibay; he is a Dreamer who lived in my district 
and joined the U.S. Marine Corps. Jose Angel Garibay was the first 
serviceman from Orange County to be killed in action in Iraq. Jose 
Angel Garibay was a Dreamer who made the ultimate sacrifice for 
America.
  Madam Speaker, if I can call your attention to a second poster. This 
is Gregoria, a farmworker who has risked her life during the worldwide 
pandemic to feed our country. Even during droughts and fire season in 
California, these farmworkers still went to work to make sure that our 
country was fed, and America was kept healthy. Gregoria has been living 
and working in my district for 28 years. She is a mother and 
breadwinner.
  People like these two individuals, Gregoria and Jose Angel Garibay, 
have

earned the right to American citizenship. Madam Speaker, I urge my 
colleagues to continue to fight for a pathway to citizenship for 
millions of individuals like Gregoria and Jose.
