Madam Speaker, I yield myself the balance of my time. I join my House colleagues in recognizing the significance of Juneteenth as a national holiday. This is significant legislation. The vast majority of States already recognize the day as a holiday, or observe it, and establishing a Federal holiday mostly impacts the Federal workforce. I, therefore, support moving forward to designate this new Federal holiday. It is a day worthy of all Americans' support. I want to congratulate those who have worked so hard to make this happen. Madam Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time.
