First of all, when there is a page reunion, come back, and make it a positive thing to do that, whatever it takes, because you have made lasting friends. I think that is important. Secondly, each and every one of you is going to go back home. You are used to going to Georgetown. You are used to going on the Metro. You are used to going down here to the little soup and salad place all together, all on your own. The first time you go out the door, your mom and dad are going to say ``Where are you going?'' and you say ``I am going out, mom and dad.'' They say ``Not so fast.'' Break them in easy. If I have ever seen a problem, it is with pages going back that have had their independence here and freedom, and all of a sudden going back home and to the reality of parenthood. Break in your parents easy. The third thing is come see us in the offices. Call us and send us letters. God bless.

We've worked closely with this Committee's staff, VA recruiters, and VSOs on this bill, and I'm pleased to report that it has garnered wide support and formal endorsement from 10 veterans' service organizations.
I think that this Administration and your office recognizes it is electoral poison to put those on the map before the 2020 election.
This is why it is essential that we provide the depot funding they need to modernize the island's firing ranges.
The Veterans' Preference Parity Act rights this wrong by modernizing the archaic Federal hiring process and recognizing those who have served our nation.
