Dear Madam Speaker, as I leave Congress\nas the people's representative for the 13th Congressional District of\nMichigan, I thank God, who is the head\n\n[[Page E2255]]\n\nof my life, for allowing me the blessing of serving in perhaps the most\naugust, deliberate, elected body in the world. I am humbled and honored\nthat the great citizens of Michigan and the people of Detroit chose me\nfor so many years to fight and serve them for more than three decades\nas a public servant. The many friendships, relationships, and\nassociations I have formed will remain with me forever.\n  I finally want to thank perhaps the most underappreciated team in any\nelected body--the staff who have worked for me for those years in the\nState of Michigan and on Capitol Hill. The tireless dedication,\ndevotion and work will never be forgotten by me or the people to whom\nyou have been so effective and efficient for so long.\n  I hope and pray for all of my colleagues that we may bring a better\nworld to all Americans, and never flinch from fighting for justice and\ndemocratic ideals. We made history. We made difficult decisions. We\nfought the good fight. We have difficult days ahead, and I remain\nfaithful to protecting the Constitution of the United States and the\ngoals of our great nation.\n  God bless.\n\n                          ____________________"]], "columns": ["granule_id", "date", "congress", "session", "volume", "issue", "title", "chamber", "granule_class", "sub_granule_class", "page_start", "page_end", "speakers", "bills", "citation", "full_text"], "primary_keys": ["granule_id"], "primary_key_values": ["CREC-2010-12-22-pt1-PgE2254-2"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 36.36872197967023, "source": "Federal Register API & Regulations.gov API", "source_url": "https://www.federalregister.gov/developers/api/v1", "license": "Public Domain (U.S. Government data)", "license_url": "https://www.regulations.gov/faq"}
