I thank the gentleman from Texas. I would imagine anyone who was wondering what Women's History Month was all about should just listen to your remarks as you pay exceptional tribute to some amazing women from your home State of Texas who all left a mark not only in your life, but in others' lives as well. These are women who, I am sure, are getting celebrated all throughout your State and this country not just by you, but by others as well. In my home State of New York, it is tough. They give us a month and here tonight they give us an hour. There really are so many different women who gave us this opportunity to take us to today where the two of us can stand here on this particular House floor and speak to each other about such an important topic that apparently 25 years ago didn't even happen. It wasn't even until the early 1980s that we even started recognizing a women's history week. So here we are, and I am glad that you are part of it. I can see that there is a lot of inspiration from women in your life. I yield to the gentleman from Texas.
