On the recordJuly 12, 2016
First, I think we should all recognize that this is a moment of tragedy in our great country. Our President and former President, as we speak here on the House floor, are in Dallas, Texas, at a memorial service for the officers who were killed and wounded and for the two civilians in the shooting incident in Dallas last Friday; so this is a solemn day for our country. But, here in Washington, several weeks ago, we had our annual congressional baseball game. As you can tell by the piece of hardware to my right, for the first time in 8 years, the Republicans won, which is something that we can be proud of. Before I comment for the winning side, I yield to the gentleman from Pennsylvania (Mr. Michael F. Doyle), my good friend and the manager of the congressional Democratic team.
