PRESIDENT TRUMP BRINGING BACK INVESTMENTS

Congressional Record, Volume 171 Issue 53 (Monday, March 24, 2025) [Congressional Record Volume 171, Number 53 (Monday, March 24, 2025)] [House] [Page H1193] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] PRESIDENT TRUMP BRINGING BACK INVESTMENTS (Mr. Joyce of Pennsylvania was recognized to address the House for 5 minutes.) Mr. JOYCE of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, during President Trump's inaugural address, he spoke of an aggressive artificial intelligence agenda to keep America competitive with the Chinese Communist Party. Just a few months later, President Trump announced a historic $1.4 trillion investment into our economy from the United Arab Emirates. This investment will support American artificial intelligence infrastructure. It will support semiconductors made in America. It will support energy production from America. It will support American manufacturing. Our two nations worked closely together during President Trump's first term to bring peace to the Middle East through the historic Abraham Accords. Now, with President Trump's leadership back in the White House, I am encouraged to see this partnership grow even stronger with this investment. President Trump promised to bring investment back to the United States, and he is already delivering on this promise just 2 months into his term. Agriculture Is Critical in Pennsylvania Mr. JOYCE of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, as a leading producer of dairy products in the country, Pennsylvania dairymen know just how important food additives are for the safety of our food supply. However, the FDA's approval process for these additives has resulted in a decades-long approval process that stifles innovation and leaves American farmers falling behind their international competitors. I am proud to join a bipartisan group of Members on the Innovative FEED Act to streamline this process and cut the approval time down by years. Nutrient supplements keep our food supply safe and our livestock healthy and allow American farmers to stay competitive on the international market. Agriculture is a critical industry in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and I am proud to help lead this fight in Congress to give farmers access to the innovative products that they need to compete. Recognizing the Life and Legacy of Lloyd Peck Mr. JOYCE of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the remarkable life and distinguished legacy of Lloyd Peck, a proud veteran, a beloved community leader, and a true American patriot who passed away on March 17. Lloyd Peck served as a first lieutenant in the United States Marine Corps during the Korean war. In civilian life, Lloyd filled many various roles as an advocate for veterans. In addition to serving as the commander of the Blair County War Veterans Council, Lieutenant Peck was a founding member of the Blair County Honor Guard, the chief parade marshal for the Memorial Day and the Veterans Day parades in Altoona, and a volunteer at the James E. Van Zandt Medical Center, where he worked tirelessly to help local veterans receive their benefits. In the true spirit of Semper Fidelis, Lieutenant Peck continually demonstrated his steadfast loyalty to his fellow veterans and continually worked to help our Nation become that more perfect Union. As we remember Lloyd Peck, we also keep in mind his loved ones, including his wife, Judy; his daughter, Heather; and his sister, Betty. We offer them our condolences and our heartfelt prayers. Mr. Speaker, please join me, and all members of Pennsylvania's 13th Congressional District, in remembering the incredible life and legacy of Lieutenant Lloyd Peck. ____________________
