“Mr. Speaker, on behalf of the bipartisan Women Members of Congress softball team, we want to once again extend an invitation to all Members, staff, and anyone listening to attend the second annual congressional women's softball game, which will occur next Wednesday night at 7 p.m. at Guy Mason Field, once again benefiting the Young Survival Coalition, which is a young women's breast cancer organization. We really thank all of the Members and staff who came out last year. Over 400 people attended. We raised $50,000 for the Young Survival Coalition. And this year, captained by myself and my colleague from Missouri, Jo Ann Emerson, Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, and Lisa Murkowski, the team members are Donna Edwards, Grace Napolitano, Jean Schmidt, Laura Richardson, Betsy Markey, Betty Sutton, Linda Sanchez, Susan Davis, Kathy Dahlkemper, Shelley Moore Capito, Debbie Halvorson, Senator Kay Hagan, Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, Kathy Castor, Senator Jeanne Shaheen, and Nydia Velazquez. With that, I yield to my good friend from the State of Missouri.”
