On the recordJuly 27, 1998
My heart and prayers and sympathies go out to the families of John Gibson and Officer J.J. Chestnut, for they made the ultimate sacrifice to protect our freedoms and liberty and put their lives on the line, and their families will never be able to erase that burden and that void in their lives. And I appreciate our House leadership and the leadership of Congress and what they are going to do with all of us to make sure that as much as we can do we will do for these families and that we will never forget. I want to commend all of the Capitol Police, and particularly the officers that all responded during that circumstance, from all over, because I heard from them as they all came here together to shoulder and support each other.
