Yesterday, we had a big event at the Prince George's County Trap & Skeet Club. We had the annual Congressional Sportsmen's Foundation and Congressional Sportsmen's Caucus Shootout. I have some awards to announce. First of all, team captains were myself, and Paul Ryan on the Republican side. The winner of the sporting clays competition was Congressman Paul Ryan; the top trap gun, Dan Boren; top skeet, Chris Carney. The top Democratic shooter was Congressman Mike Thompson. The top Republican was Congressman John Kline. The top gun was Duncan Hunter. Let me say this, Madam Speaker. Duncan Hunter's father tried to be the top gun for many years and never was able to accomplish it. So it was very nice that his son was able to win that award. But the most important award--for the second year in a row, the Democrats won 225- 209. I would invite all Republican Members to my office, 216 Cannon, to visit the trophy at any time.
