 I want to especially express gratitude to Chairman Smith for offering me the opportunity to advocate for youth in this way, in finding value in my lived experience as a former foster youth, but more importantly, as a child of God. Thank you. Thank you so much. Ms. Mansfield, you are now recognized. Thank you. My name is Alexis Mansfield, and I'm the senior advisor at the Women's Justice Institute on issues related to children and families. I'd like to thank Chairman Smith, Ranking Member Neal,
