I congratulate the newest member of the Wisconsin delegation, Tony Wied, on being sworn in this evening. Tony joins our delegation with an impressive three-decade career of starting, building, and running three retail outlets in northeast Wisconsin, including Dino Stop locations in Green Bay, Ledgeview, Manitowoc, New Franken, Little Suamico, and Abrams. Through his years in business, Tony has learned a lot about the value of hard work, strong customer service, and uniting people around a common mission. Tony has employed hundreds of Wisconsinites over the years and now brings that same commonsense business acumen to this body, where it is greatly needed. We need more people dealing with the common sense that requires you to be a small businessman, and he is going to help the everyday Americans pursue the American Dream. Mr. Speaker, once again, I extend my heartfelt congratulations to Tony; his wife, Angela; and his four sons: Charlie, Frank, George, and Simon on this momentous occasion. I certainly had a chance to see his four sons on the campaign trail. They are like a whirlwind across northeastern Wisconsin. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentleman from Wisconsin (Mr. Wied).

over the last couple of weekends, I have attended two events of the Hmong Americans who populate Wisconsin. Wisconsin has the third highest Hmong population in the country. I always love to talk about the Hmong because they came here not…

I am going to quote from a book called ``The Tragedy of American Compassion,'' by Marvin Olasky. It is now a 30-year-old book. It is an interesting book in that it deals with what we have today called welfare. At the time that was all…
