Mr. Hoyer, I thank you very much. I appreciate those very kind words about Speaker Wright, and everyone in Fort Worth and the metroplex will appreciate those kind words as well. I also would like to recognize Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi. She is another Member of Congress who also served with Speaker Wright, someone that she was also very fond of. She had the opportunity to talk with Speaker Wright a couple of years before his passing when she was down in Fort Worth. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentlewoman from California (Ms. Pelosi).
