SOTO. Mr. Speaker, next I would like to honor Ingrid Morfa,
immigrant, attorney, and activist, a leader in immigration law in
central Florida. Ingrid Morfa is an attorney and first-generation American. Her
parents migrated from the Dominican Republic in the 1970s. As a mother of four, she is a firm believer that educating our
community and helping those in need will make the United States a
better place for her children and grandchildren for years to come. Her studies at Harvard University, Barry University School of Law,
Cambridge College in the U.K., Kaplan University, and the New York City
of Technology College have equipped Ingrid Morfa to help those around
her. As a member of the National Caribbean Leadership Team and the
Democratic Hispanic Caucus of Florida, an advocate for domestic
violence prevention with Nuevo Sendero, and an attorney who assisted
more than 2,000 naturalization applicants and dozens of green card
applicants who are victims of domestic violence and crime at no cost,
she has shown a devotion to the community that is only surpassed by her
love that she has for her family. Honoring Jimmy Torres
