DELIVERING FOR EASTERN NORTH CAROLINA

Congressional Record, Volume 172 Issue 48 (Tuesday, March 17, 2026) [Congressional Record Volume 172, Number 48 (Tuesday, March 17, 2026)] [House] [Page H2538] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] {time} 1210 DELIVERING FOR EASTERN NORTH CAROLINA (Mr. DAVIS of North Carolina asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.) Mr. DAVIS of North Carolina. Mr. Speaker, for those who may not follow my work closely, they may ask: What have you done for eastern North Carolina? The answer is straightforward. Because of my work in Congress and, most importantly, my vote on key appropriations bills, I have secured 15 projects, totaling nearly $54 million. Traveling across the region and meeting and connecting with local leaders and community members, I have seen firsthand that Federal investments are delivering real results. In rural communities where resources are already stretched thin, investments such as a new fire truck in Williamston, a sewer infrastructure project in Sharpsburg, and a public safety project in Ahoskie are making real differences by addressing longstanding needs. I am putting all political divisions aside to make a difference for our families. These are not Democratic or Republican issues. They are eastern North Carolina issues. It is always good to be back home. To be clear, I come to Washington, D.C., to fight for eastern North Carolina. ____________________
