WELCOMING CONGRESSMAN-ELECT SETH MAGAZINER
(Mr. LANGEVIN asked and was given permission to address the House for
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. LANGEVIN. Madam Speaker, it has been the honor and privilege of a
lifetime to serve the people of Rhode Island's Second Congressional
District for the last 22 years.
Together we have accomplished so much, from strengthening our
national security and cybersecurity, in particular, to advancing the
rights of people with disabilities, to advocating for our Nation's
foster youth, and so much more.
With less than 2 months left in my term, I will be leaving Congress
with a lot of mixed emotions, but I still believe that politics and
government is still a noble profession, and I couldn't be more proud of
the person who will be succeeding me as the next Congressman for Rhode
Island's Second Congressional District, Seth Magaziner.
Throughout his career, Seth has proved himself to be a committed
fighter for working families, and that is exactly what he will continue
to do as a Congressman.
Seth will be laser-focused on cutting costs for Rhode Islanders, from
lowering the price of prescription drugs to cracking down on oil and
gas companies that are price gouging everyday Americans.
Seth will fight to combat the climate crisis, and he will work to
keep Rhode Islanders safe from the threat of gun violence.
Seth will always stand up for anyone who tries to cut older Rhode
Islanders' hard-earned Medicare and Social Security benefits.
Madam Speaker, I couldn't be more proud of Seth, and I can't think of
a better person to serve the people of Rhode Island. Congratulations.
