“I rise today to honor Tim Miller and the members of the Texas EquuSearch Mounted Search and Recovery Team. The first official meeting of this organization was held in August of 2000; and since then, Texas EquuSearch has been on nearly 100 searches in 2 short years. They have an admirable record of working constructively with our Nation's local law enforcement and the Federal Bureau of Investigation; and right now, Tim and Texas EquuSearch are on still another search near their headquarters in Dickinson, Texas. Texas EquuSearch stands for a great deal. Tim Miller founded the search team in loving memory of his 16-year-old daughter, Laura Miller, who was abducted and murdered in 1984. The success rate of Texas EquuSearch in finding our missing and returning many of them home alive to their loved ones is truly impressive and a living tribute to the spirit of Laura Miller. Her spirit is alive today in the heart of the Texas EquuSearch members and supporters. Texas EquuSearch Mounted Search and Recovery Team searches for our Nation's missing and abducted children and adults. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to applaud and to urge on Texas EquuSearch to continue forward in their mission, assuring that 'the lost are not alone.'”
