Madam Speaker, I rise today to thank my friend and
former colleague, Xavier Becerra, for his long and effective record of
service on behalf of California in Congress. Attorney General Xavier Becerra has been a true mentor and a friend
to me, especially during this transition serving as a new Member of
Congress. His support and his service reaffirm that the children of immigrants
and immigrants themselves have a crucial role to play in our Federal
Government. I want to congratulate Xavier Becerra on his well-deserved
appointment to serve as California's attorney general. While he is no
longer with us in the House, I know that his new appointment will be
even greater felt across our country during these troubling political
times.
