                     EXTENDING SYMPATHIES TO MEXICO

  (Mr. TORRES asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. TORRES. Mr. Speaker, today the House of Representatives mourns 
the untimely death of Secretary Luis Donaldo Colisio. We want to convey 
our sympathies to his family and to the people of Mexico in their hour 
of loss.
  Mr. Speaker, in similar times of loss when our Nation has gone 
through this turmoil and tragic instance, the Mexican people have stood 
by us in solidarity. Today we do the same.
  Our President, our Speaker and my colleagues here assembled convey 
our sorrow to the people of Mexico in this tragic hour.
  Mr. Speaker, I know that they are strong, they are resilient, and in 
this time they will prevail.
