The caucus
also discusses timely topics, such as trade, security, and foreign
affairs, and how they relate to our German counterparts. Mr. Speaker, German heritage has become widespread in America. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, Germans are the largest single
ethnic group in the United States. Frederick Muhlenberg, a German
immigrant and Lutheran pastor from Pennsylvania, whose family also
founded Muhlenberg College, was the first Speaker of this House
following the signing of the new Constitution. Our caucus has nearly 100 members in the House, and I urge all of
those who are interested in joining to do so today.
