Solution, so i ran for congress. Over the past six years i have done everything to work with my colleagues to get things done. During my tenure, i have had legislative lows, two signature short of a discharge petition that would have led to a daca fix. We should never stop fighting for folks who are part of our american family, people like john lewis told us this work would be long and hard, but it is righteous. Have hadme time i legislative highs, being the lead republican with my friend to get the National Museum of out ofino act passed this house of representatives. After 26 years, we finally did it. Modernizing i. T. Procurement laws for better services, and establishing a National Strategy to ensure the u. S. Stays a leader in Artificial Intelligence are going to pay off for years. I came to congress to make our nation safer. When i was first elected, isis was the Big National Security threat. As we look at they years ahead, the nature of the threat is different. The next generation of battle which has begun is against the Chinese Communist party. China is trying to supplant the United States as the sole superpower. Every american should care about this struggle because we face a potential future were mandarin and the u. N. Dominate the global economy. The winner of this generation to fining will not just affect our economy but will shape the rest of the century for the entire world. Within this context of great myer and competition, i urge colleagues to face this threat with the simple principle i learned from the cia a nice with nice guys and tough with tough guys. At home i learned another principal, show up. I was willing to show up where others would not, and work across the aisle to solve problems. We were able to find solutions to difficult problems by empowering people and not the government. I could not have done any of this without my staff. My team and i held the belief that no problem was too small and no goal too big. This mentality is how we helped a highschooler who had an idea to prevent her friends from distracted driving. We spent a year working on a National Strategy for ai. The thing i will remember most is helping constituents. Making a difference in the lives of those folks is something i will cherish forever. To all of my staff over the late, thank you for your hours. Thank you for your hard work. Thank you for putting up with me, and your dedication not just to the folks in texas but the entire american family. It has been a distinct religion to stand on this floor to debate issues and represent people of the 23rd. Thank you for putting your faith and trust in me. Serving in congress has not only taught me about this incredible institution, it has proven a longheld belief that way more unites us as a country than divides us. My final message for my colleagues before i depart this body, dont treat bipartisanship like a four letter word. The only way big things have ever been done in this country is by doing them together. Esther speaker, i yield back the balance of my time. Mr. Speaker, i yield back the balance of my time.
