                   THANKING MICHIGAN'S 12TH DISTRICT

  (Ms. TLAIB asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. TLAIB. Madam Speaker, I thank the incredible families of 
Michigan's 12th Congressional District for sending me back to Congress. 
I am truly honored to be able to be your voice in the people's House.
  As one of the only Members of the United States Congress who created 
neighborhood service centers, we have already returned over $6.2 
million directly back into the pockets of many of my neighbors, 
invested $52 million in our communities, and assisted more than 10,000 
of our families who needed help.
  As we begin the 119th Congress, I am determined more than ever to 
continue to fight for clean air, clean water, ending utility shutoffs, 
holding corporate polluters accountable, lowering the cost of living 
for working families, protecting Social Security and Medicare, and 
growing the Congressional Mamas Caucus, as well as, of course, ensuring 
equality and justice for all.
  To my residents, I thank them for believing in me. I will always have 
their backs, and I will never sell out.
