                    HONORING SECRETARY MARCIA FUDGE

  (Ms. BROWN asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. BROWN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in honor of my friend, mentor, 
and predecessor in Congress, the Secretary of Housing and Urban 
Development, Marcia Fudge.
  As Secretary Fudge retires, I join people from the White House to 
Warrensville Heights in celebrating her lifetime of service and 
achievement.
  Under her leadership, HUD helped more than 2 million families stay in 
their homes, served over a million people experiencing homelessness, 
and helped 250,000 Black homeowners purchase a home.
  Secretary Fudge has been a voice for justice and a champion for her 
constituents, and she has always been about results.
  Quite simply, in Congress and the Cabinet, she set the standard, and 
I am honored and humbled to follow her as the Representative of the 
11th Congressional District.
  I congratulate Secretary Fudge. We in Ohio's 11th Congressional 
District are excited to welcome her home.
