I commend Congressman Marshall for that very moving presentation and for the impressive history that he recounted of the 1st Infantry Division. This is a great bill, an important bill, and I know we are all very proud to support it. I urge a ``yes'' vote, and I yield back the balance of my time. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the motion offered by the gentleman from California (Mr. Huffman) that the House suspend the rules and pass the bill, H.R. 1088, as amended. The question was taken; and (two-thirds being in the affirmative) the rules were suspended and the bill, as amended, was passed. The title of the bill was amended so as to read: ``A bill to authorize the Society of the First Infantry Division to make modifications to the First Division Monument located on Federal Land in President's Park in the District of Columbia, and for other purposes.''. A motion to reconsider was laid on the table. ____________________

Mr. Speaker, I think we have figured out the rhythm, the prime directive here for Republican governance these days. First, they slashed the services that working families actually depend on. Then they turn around and hand the savings over…
Our parks belong to all of us. These places should be protected for every generation, not sold off to Trump’s ultra-wealthy friends to profit off of.
I will fight this, both for Yosemite and for every treasured park that would be up for grabs if this domino falls.
We may not be able to undo the damage they've done to us and the national celebration, but we can do something very patriotic by reminding everyone that our government belongs to all of us, not to Donald Trump.
