Speaker, it has truly been the most remarkable honor
to serve the people of Ohio's 12th Congressional District in central
Ohio. It all started in 1999, on my parents' front porch, the house that I
grew up in, in a middle class neighborhood in Columbus called Forest
Park. There, as the son of Italian immigrants, I learned how blessed I
truly was to be an American; first in my family to graduate from high
school, to go to high school, work my way through college at The Ohio
State University. See, my mom and dad believed that America was an incredible
opportunity. With hard work and a good education, you could do
anything.
