                    CREATING ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITIES

  (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 to share the 
incredible experiences from my recent ``Live the Dream Down East'' 
tour, a journey focused on creating economic opportunities for young 
professionals in eastern North Carolina.
  I was privileged to engage with local businessowners, medical 
professionals, and community stakeholders throughout my tour. We 
discussed the challenges they face.
  In Rocky Mount, local businessowners tell me about their hopes and 
inspiring aspirations for the future. By supporting our entrepreneurs 
and making them aware of available resources, we can foster an 
environment where businesses thrive and communities flourish.
  Let's continue to showcase the true spirit of the American Dream down 
East.
