Welcoming the Honorable Connie Conway

Floor Speech

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. CALVERT. Madam Speaker, it is my privilege and honor to welcome now-Representative Connie Conway as the newest Member of the U.S. House of Representatives.

Congresswoman Conway is a proud, lifelong resident of California's San Joaquin Valley. She has dedicated the better part of her life to public service as a county supervisor, a legislator in the California State Assembly, and as the California Executive Director of the USDA's Farm Service Agency. The constituents in California's 22nd District stand to benefit from Congresswoman Conway's vast experience and dedication.

I congratulate the entire Conway family on this exciting occasion, including Connie's husband, Craig; her children; and, of course, we can't leave out her black lab, Jake.

Madam Speaker, I yield to the dean of the California delegation, Ms. Lofgren, to introduce our new colleague.
