Mr. Speaker, I support the motion of the gentleman in that it endorses the provision of the Senate bill that would broaden the Survivors Benefit Plan to include members of the armed services who die while on active duty. Providing this coverage is fair and the right thing to do. It ensures that an annuity will be paid to the surviving family of service members who die while on active duty. I commend the gentleman from Missouri for offering this motion and urge my colleagues to support it.
