 THE IMPORTANCE OF LISTENING TO THE CONCERNS OF TYRRELL COUNTY, NORTH 
                                CAROLINA

  (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. Madam Speaker, I rise to highlight the 
importance of ensuring that national leaders hear the voices and 
concerns of eastern North Carolina to include the residents of Tyrrell 
County, which are near and dear to me.
  With a population of 3,245, Tyrrell County is the smallest in our 
State. I am deeply grateful for Interior Secretary Deb Haaland's visit 
to Tyrrell County in February. Her presence and the Federal funds for 
the boardwalk restoration will make a significant difference.
  During my most recent visit, I met with the Concerned Citizens of 
Columbia, who shared their concerns about drainage, infrastructure, 
housing, and the need for more youth activities.
  I truly feel honored to serve the residents of this extraordinary 
community. Despite their small numbers, their impact is mighty.
