                        HONORING DR. ALICE MANN

  (Ms. MORRISON asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. MORRISON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Dr. Alice Mann for 
her dedicated service to Minnesotans and her commitment to improving 
the health and well-being of communities across our State.
  She immigrated to Minnesota from Brazil as a child and has been a 
fierce champion of human rights her entire life.
  Driven by her experiences with patients struggling to access 
affordable care, Dr. Mann ran for office and was elected to the 
Minnesota House of Representatives where she championed policies to 
expand access to healthcare, lower costs, and improve outcomes for 
families.
  After caring for patients during the pandemic, Dr. Mann returned to 
public service and was elected to the Minnesota Senate where she has 
been a leading voice on healthcare policy and the chief author of 
legislation establishing paid family and medical leave.

  Her unwavering advocacy as a legislator and her dedicated care as a 
physician have changed the trajectory of many people's lives.
  Dr. Mann is a dear friend to many, a devoted wife to her husband, 
Elliot, and a caring mother to Maxwell, Alexander, and Marcelo.
  Mr. Speaker, on behalf of the people of Minnesota, I extend my 
heartfelt gratitude to Dr. Mann for her care of patients and her 
contributions to our State.
