Healthy and doing well. We're meeting this morning as a full committee to conduct committee business
to approve new committee assignments. At this time I'd like to welcome Ms. Sheila
Shafilis McCormick, Florida's 20th district to the committee. She's a lawyer and CEO of the
family business of a home health care company. Welcome Ms. Shafilis McCormick.
Is she here? Yes I am. Okay there she is. I'd ask unanimous consent that she be appointed to
subcommittee on early childhood elementary and secondary education and the subcommittee on
workforce protections. So moved. Second. Second. Without objection so ordered. Does the ranking
member wish to be recognized? Yes Mr. Chairman I do and I want to welcome Mr. Shafilis McCormick
to the committee. Also she and I had a chance to chat on the floor and I'm looking forward to
an opportunity to talk with her at some length sometime. I also ask unanimous consent that
Dr. Miller Meeks of Iowa be appointed as ranking member of the subcommittee on higher education
and workforce investment. Is there any objection? Without objection so ordered. I would like to
welcome Ms. Shafilis McCormick. Would you like to say a few words?
Good afternoon everyone. Thank you so much for welcoming me onto this committee. I'm very
excited to do the work that we have to do to better our country and our community and I
look forward to working with everyone. Thank you and does our new ranking member Ms. Miller Meeks
have anything to say? If not we look forward to her good work as a new
ranking member and is there any further business to come before the committee?
I remind the members we have a subcommittee meeting in approximately seven minutes
and we look forward to seeing many of you there. Is there any further business? If not
the whole committee committee meeting is hereby adjourned.
Thank you everyone for appearing. Thank you Mr. Chairman.
