             THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE DOWN ON THE GOVERNMENT

  (Mr. DAVIS of North Carolina asked and was given permission to 
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. DAVIS of North Carolina. Mr. Speaker, I rise today on behalf of 
North Carolina's First Congressional District.
  Right now, the American people are down on the government and tired 
of the politics of division.
  When I am at home in the district, I am reminded that there is still 
hope for the future, for the American Dream.
  Mr. Speaker, eastern North Carolinians are tired of what they see in 
Washington. They want us, Democrats and Republicans, to do right by 
them, to find solutions to the most pressing issues being discussed at 
the dinner table.
  Mr. Speaker, I will do just that. I will fight to ensure those who 
fought to defend our freedoms do not have to fight their country to 
survive. I will fight to ensure our families and farmers are better 
connected, because they, too, deserve every resource to thrive.
  Mr. Speaker, I will fight to ensure our most vulnerable communities 
have access to affordable healthcare. We owe it to our communities. We 
must act together.
