Robert, thank you very much. We are still waiting, Mr. President, for you to step up and tell America how proud you are of our law enforcement men and women and to hear you condemn, Mr. President, this violent, dangerous rhetoric that is encouraging mentally unbalanced people to attack our law enforcement officers, as Deputy Sheriff Goforth was murdered in Houston, Texas. We are still waiting, Mr. President. But while we wait, Members of Congress are standing here on the floor tonight to tell America how proud we are of our men and women in uniform. I am proud to yield to my colleague and friend from Texas (Mr. Olson).
