“I thank the gentleman from South Carolina (Mr. Clyburn) very much for his timely and very serious comments. I hope that all of the Members who are here on both sides of the aisle realize the seriousness of the comments. There is nothing humorous about them all, nothing to be smiling or laughing about. It is very timely in light of the unfortunate incident that happened with our colleague. I thank the gentleman very much for bringing that to light. Mr. Speaker, I now yield to my fellow Texan from the 18th Congressional District in Houston. I thank very much Representative Sheila Jackson Lee for joining us this evening. We look forward to the gentlewoman's words.”
