These fine athletes constantly train and strive to better themselves.

I rise today to pay tribute to two fine people and world class athletes from Greeley, Colorado.

Mr. Doug Bell and Ms. Marilyn Stapleton were both ranked third among America's best runners by age group in the Running Times.

Doug Bell, owner of Bell's Running, and Marilyn Stapleton set fine examples for young athletes.

I commend them for their hard work, commitment and dedication.

For two years, Coloradans have been bombarded with opinions suggesting it's not about fidelity, commitment, or personal behavior.

Economic prosperity, lower taxes, and freedom can support and strengthen families and marriages.

Coloradans, being common sense, caring people, recognize marriage and family last forever.

Coloradans bristle when politicians betray their marriage vows for extramarital affairs.

Government should take a page from the Hippocratic Oath: 'First, do no harm.'

Failure to do so will only perpetuate the myth that strong marriages and families are just by-products of a strong economy.

Water quality in California's San Joaquin Valley has been degraded by unregulated discharges of waste from dairy farms.

Mr. Speaker, today I introduced legislation to address the most important source of water pollution facing our country--polluted runoff.

The bill improves water quality monitoring, recordkeeping and reporting so that the public knows which CAFOs are polluting.

I hope that this Congress does not continue to ignore this growing national problem.

I am encouraged by recent efforts by the Department of Agriculture and the Environmental Protection Agency to address pollution from animal feedlots.

This legislation will restore confidence that we can swim and fish in our streams and rivers without getting sick.

Farm SAFE is very similar to legislation that I introduced last Congress.
