On the recordNovember 2, 1999
House Resolution 324 provides a wonderful opportunity to strengthen the character and manner of our public and political deliberations, as well as to improve the way we treat each other. Congress should seize this opportunity to lead by example. Not only should we pass House Resolution 324, celebrating National Civility Week, but we should provide on a daily basis the examples of civil speech and conduct that contribute to the rule of reason and show the American public that civility does count. I congratulate the gentleman from California (Mr. Lantos) for sponsoring this fine legislation. I am proud to bring it to the floor and ask for the full support of all Members on this resolution.
