“Ms. KAMLAGER-DOVE. Mr. Speaker, I was unavoidably detained during the vote on S. 4465--To amend the FISA Amendments Act of 2008 to extend the authorities of title VII of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978. Had I been present, I would have voted NAY on Roll Call No. 155. ____________________”

“Ms. KAMLAGER-DOVE. Mr. Speaker, I rise today with a heavy heart to honor the extraordinary life of Reverend Dr. William Saxe Epps which began on June 3, 1945. Reverend Dr. Epps of Rochester, New York, lived by the principle that ''service is the price you pay for the space you occupy.'' His unwavering commitment to serving the people of Los Angeles and our Nation reminds us that privilege demands responsibility--and that faith requires action. His pastoral journey was deeply rooted in the Black freedom tradition, carrying forward a legacy of faith-driven activism and moral leadership. He served some of the most historic Black churches in America, including First Baptist Church of Winston-Salem, Calvary Baptist Church in Massachusetts, and most recently, Second Baptist Church of Los Angeles here in my congressional district. Under his visionary leadership as senior pastor for more than 35 years, Second Baptist Church of Los Angeles became both a spiritual anchor and a powerful civic force, advancing justice, education, and community empowerment for my constituents and beyond. Beyond ministry, Reverend Dr. Epps was a tireless champion of education. He worked for former Congressman Adam Clayton Powell, Jr. and later became the longest-serving Commissioner on the Affordable Housing Commission where he helped ensure that every Angeleno had a home. Reverend Dr. Epps found deep joy and meaning in art, music, literature, and culture, believing these to be essential tools for healing and human connection. With his transition on January 12, 2026, alongside his loving wife of 48 years, we have lost not only a giant in the faith and civil rights movement, but also a devoted husband, caring grandfather, and cherished friend. His legacy of service, justice, and love will endure as we continue to practice what he so powerfully preached. May he rest in peace. ____________________”

“Ms. KAMLAGER-DOVE. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to the extraordinary life of a beloved Angeleno who passed away at the age of 96, the late Margaret ``BB'' Bell Houston. For more than four decades, she served as a private nurse. Her unwavering commitment to caring for others touched countless patients and leaves behind a legacy of compassion that will live on for generations to come. Those who knew her best will remember a passionate animal lover with an eye for fashion, a joy for jazz and dancing, and a fondness for sunflowers. I like to imagine her now dancing to jazz in a garden of sunflowers in heaven, reunited with her husband and parents. Margaret was generous beyond measure to her family and friends alike. Her loss will be profoundly felt by her son Cedric, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. She will be deeply missed. ____________________”
