                WELCOME TO THE REVEREND MICHAEL OBINGER

  (Mr. KLECZKA asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. KLECZKA. Mr. Speaker, it is an honor and a pleasure for me today 
to welcome to this Chamber the Reverend Michael Obinger, who so 
eloquently delivered the opening prayer for today's session.
  As Reverend Obinger, he is a faithful servant to God and to the 
people of the city of Whitewater as pastor of the Community of Christ 
the Servant Congregation.
  He has also served on Milwaukee's Social Development Commission and 
its Hunger Task Force.
  As citizen Mike Obinger, he ably serves the people of Wisconsin's 4th 
Congressional District as a constituent liaison in my Milwaukee office.
  Mike has played an important role in making sure that the views and 
concerns of my constituents on health care are heard and understood.
  He has helped Milwaukee's senior citizens get access to safe public 
housing.
  And he has worked with the leaders of the Hispanic community to spur 
economic development and job creation.
  Every Member of Congress should be so blessed as to have such a 
dedicated and thoughtful individual on their staff.
  Mr. Speaker, I am proud to welcome Reverend Obinger to this Chamber, 
and I thank him for his inspiring benediction.
