                       GOOD TIME FOR PENNSYLVANIA

  (Ms. DEAN of Pennsylvania asked and was given permission to address 
the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. DEAN of Pennsylvania. Madam Speaker, it is a good time for 
Pennsylvania. Some would say we are on a roll.
  The Phillies made it to the World Series; Jalen Hurts is the MVP; and 
the Eagles are the best team in football.
  Last November, Pennsylvanians spoke loudly. Josh Shapiro was elected 
our Governor and Austin Davis our Lieutenant Governor, and we begin 
this term with newly elected Democratic Speaker of the House Mark 
Rozzi, our Senator John Fetterman, and nine Democratic Congress Members 
representing us here in D.C.
  Just like the entire Democratic Caucus, Pennsylvania Democrats are 
united and determined to make a difference for everyday people on 
issues like gun violence, addiction, and providing high-quality 
education, which makes me eager to, once again, serve alongside 
returning Members Matt Cartwright, Brendan Boyle, Dwight Evans, Mary 
Gay Scanlon, Susan Wild, and Chrissy Houlahan, and with dynamic new 
Members like Summer Lee, an activist lawyer and first Black woman to 
represent Pennsylvania in Congress, and Chris Deluzio, an Iraq war 
veteran and voting rights attorney.
  Pennsylvanians sent a congressional delegation to Washington that 
looks like Pennsylvania and, with Governor-elect Shapiro, we will 
govern for all.
