Mr. Speaker, in conclusion, I would like to note that this 225th anniversary of the signing of the Treaty of Paris, the declaration in that treaty of the intention of both the U.S. and the United Kingdom to forget all past misunderstandings and differences and to secure perpetual peace and harmony, over 200 years later these goals remain a cornerstone to our strong relationship. I encourage my colleagues to support this resolution and reaffirm our close ties to our dear ally, Great Britain.
