“I, too, echo all the comments that were said about honoring the Vietnam war-era veterans. I take the challenge that our ranking member has spoken about, identifying and recognizing other Vietnam war veterans, and that is why I have done this. As I am sure many of my colleagues do, too, in their respective districts, we take the time to identify the Vietnam-era war veterans, and every time we have a community event, we invite them and present them with a token of a lapel pin to show our appreciation. It is a small token of saying thank you. We can never say enough about how we are happy that they are home, so we welcome everybody home, especially from the Vietnam war. Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues to support S. 2825, and I yield back the balance of my time. The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. Carl). The question is on the motion offered by the gentlewoman from California (Mrs. Kim) that the House suspend the rules and pass the bill, S. 2825. The question was taken; and (two-thirds being in the affirmative) the rules were suspended and the bill was passed. A motion to reconsider was laid on the table. ____________________”
