Mrs. BEATTY. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to celebrate Adelphi Bank, a Black-owned bank in Columbus, Ohio, in my district, led by my dear friends, President and CEO Jordan Miller and its founder, Commissioner Kevin Boyce.
Adelphi continues to reach new heights, as they were just named by Columbus Business First as the number one bank in central Ohio with the fastest-growing deposits.
It is for this reason that I have worked to pass my bipartisan bill, the Advancing the Mentor-Protege Program for Small Financial Institutions Act, which passed unanimously on Tuesday. This bill will provide critical resources to minority depository institutions just like Adelphi.
I thank Ranking Member Waters and Chairman Hill for bringing my bill to the floor. I also thank Fifth Third Bank, Huntington Bank, and KeyBank for their support, alongside CitiBank, an early supporter of the mentor-protege program that recently provided technical assistance to Adelphi Bank.
